ath_bar_edit
This function serves in creating and editing qualified bar assemblies, which can be used as a bar in space (3D) or as a section in the drawing.
Bar assemblies can consist of one or more component parts and be provided with additional properties. These are in turn dependent on the type of bar assembly. The following types are possible:
1. Bar assemblies without further intelligence, i.e. those which only contain outline information.
2. Bar assemblies which are formed from references. References are pointers to other bar assemblies (similar to external references in drawings). The following variants and combinations can be defined from references.
– Simple variants. Application example: Mullions with or without mullion reinforcement.
– Glazing, i.e. assemblies whose components are modified or displaced depending on the glass thickness. Application example: Transoms in which variously thick panes can be fitted.
3. Bar assemblies which include stretchable outlines. Application example: Wooden mullions (stretchable) with aluminum attachments.
4. Profiles with stiffening (zig-zag or traverse).
Dialog box Bar assembly manager
db_ath_bar_edit
Display section
In the upper section the name of the bar assembly is displayed if available.
The preview of the current bar assembly is dynamic. The active component is shown in red as standard. Inactive parts are displayed in their object color (for example, the color of the assigned material). Furthermore, a rectangle is displayed which encloses all components in the bar assembly.
The preview can be displayed in various ways:
Full display Shows the complete components in the preview.
Cutting outline Shows the cutting outlines of the components in the preview. If no cutting outline has been defined, the outer outline is displayed.
Simplified outline Shows the simplified outlines of the components in the preview.
The simplified outline displays components of up to 16 sides. With parts with more than 16 sides or arch-shaped segments the enclosing rectangle is shown.
Section > Inserts the current bar assembly as a section into the current drawing. For this, the dialog box is temporarily closed and the input request follows:
Input request
Specify insertion point:
Define the insertion point of the section.
Specify rotated angle<0>:
Define the rotation angle of the section. You can accept the default angle with Enter or a right click.
The operating section of the Bar assembly manager contains the following sections:
• Register button Parts: In this section you define and change the outline properties of the components. For example you can specify how the part is to be aligned within the bar assembly.
• Register button Part status: Here you can influence the additional information of component properties. You can for example define whether the component is listed in the parts list or not.
• Register button Group status: Here you define information and properties of the complete bar assembly. You can for example save structural analysis values or a variable dihedral angle.
• Register button Parameter: This section is available when the bar assembly contains references and varies in dependence of the assembly properties. For bar assemblies with variable lengths stretch parameters, for example, are displayed.
• Register button Dihedral angle: This section is active when variable dihedral angles have been defined for the bar assembly. Then for example, you can define how the components are to behave when the angle is changed.
• Manager In the Manager section the functions here include the saving and loading of bar assemblies. You will find a detailed description of the functions of the manager in the Chapter Management of objects.
Register button Parts
The parts section consists of the component section and the drop-down menus:
Component list Shows all components in the current bar assembly and their properties. Here, you can select a component to modify its properties. The selected component is shown red in the preview. Referenced components are identified with an arrow (>). If you have defined stiffening, you can select its constituent parts (components, strut or bottom boom) in the left list.
< Activates the previous component in the list. The active component is shown red in the preview.
Add Adds a new component to the list. The new component initially has no outline. This means that you must assign an outline and define the other component properties.
Remove Removes the active component from the list.
> Activates the next component in the list. The active component is shown red in the preview.
Objects Adds objects from the drawing as components to the assembly. Objects that can be selected are components which have been inserted into the drawing as sections and ATHENA objects (for example semi-finished products). When you click the button, the dialog box is temporarily closed and the input request appears:
Input request
Select objects:
Select the objects which you want add as components for the assembly. Terminate the object selection by pressing the Enter key.

If the current assembly already contains components, the selected components can either be supplemented or replace the current component. For this, a query is issued which you must confirm appropriately.
Base point ... Opens the Dialog box Base Point, where you can modify the base point of the assembly. You will find further information in the section Base point.
Drop-down menu Properties
db_ath_bar_edit_eigenschaften
Here you define the properties of the current component.
If components are used by referencing in a complex bar assembly, then only the cutting and the position can be modified in the assembly definition. You must modify the other properties on the original component.
Labeling Defines the designation of the component. You can save the component designation in various languages. To do this, choose the required language from the list.
[...] Opens the Dialog box Label, where you can conveniently edit the designations for various languages. You will find further information in the Chapter Label.

This option is only available when the assembly consists of a single component. With several components, you must specify these details separately for each component, the button is grayed out.
Important: If you add a second component to a beam assembly, the switch is disabled (grayed out). If you subsequently change the component to a filling position or vitrification axis, the switch is available again, but must be switched on again, if necessary.
From object Adopts the designation of the object for the component. This option is only available for ATHENA objects.
Cutting Opens the Dialog box Cutting class, where you can assign a cutting type to the component. Component parts sharing the same cutting are modified in the Cutting dialog box according to the type of joint. If a transom and mullion butt against each other, they must be assigned the same cutting. You will find further information in Sections Cutting class andBar joint manager.
Item Opens the Dialog box Item, where you can select an item number. You will find a detailed explanation on items in the Chapter Item.

-> Defines the rotation point by the entry of polar coordinates Enter the length and angle in the appropriate input fields.
The dimensions entered here describe the position of the center of rotation relative to the base point of the assembly. This base point is located at the point of intersection which arises through the dihedral angle of the defined reference points of the components. You should first access the dimensions required for the definition in the assembly inserted into the drawing.
Dialog box section Reference point
XY Defines the reference point by the entry of Cartesian coordinates. Enter the X and Y values in the appropriate input fields.
-> Defines the reference point by the entry of polar coordinates Enter the distance and angle in the appropriate input fields.
The reference point describes the point of the center of rotation of the assembly relative to the system point of the component. With many profile systems the system point lies at the level of the glass support without gasket. The base point of the assembly is determined anew from the reference point depending on the dihedral angle of the assembly, so that the assembly is correctly positioned.
Dialog box section Rotation from
