Note 
• When trimming the overlapping elements, the following objects are not taken into account:
– Dimensions
– Text
– Solid surfaces
– 3D surfaces
– Attribute definitions.
• Blocks are released before automatic trimming (Explode). Consequently, the layers of the block elements can change. They lose the layer FromBlock (on which they were inserted) and are then located on the relevant object layer.
• ATHENA objects (membrane, insulation...) are released. In this way these objects lose their smart features.
• Wide polylines which are not completely located in the defined window are released (Explode) and consequently lose their width.
