ath_logi_project_import
Imports projects and positions into the drawing from LogiKal. You can import existing positions into the drawing or also just a project without positions.
When you run the command, the LogiKal project manager is started for the first time a project is imported; here you can select a project. Once this has been done or when the drawing is already linked to a project, the Dialog box Import LogiKal project is displayed.
Dialog box Import LogiKal project
db_ath_logi_projekt_import
Dialog box section Project
Project ... Starts the LogiKal project manager. You can select a project in the project manager. The job number and the project name are shown. Also, you see an informative message if the project is imported as a job.
Preview
The preview corresponds to the current element in the list. Two preview pictures are shown. The upper one is the current preview from LogiKal. The lower one corresponds to the 2D representation of the inserted position. The latter is only shown for positions which have already been imported.
Interior view Presents the position preview as interior view.
Outer elevation Presents the position preview as exterior view.
The setting of the view has no effects on the insertion of the position into the drawing.
Dialog box section Position
The list shows all positions of the current job. You can sort the list appropriately by clicking in the column title.
Select a position in the list to display the preview of the selected position. Activate the tick boxes in the first column to import or update positions.
A green tick is shown in the Info column for positions which have already been imported. Positions requiring update are indicated by a green update symbol and positions which cannot be imported are indicated with a red X.
Those which cannot be imported are, for example, 3D positions or positions with naming conventions incompatible with AutoCAD and ATHENA.
Below the position list, further information is shown optionally on the selected position, e.g.: Update required, Position deleted, etc.
Import project Imports the project into the drawing. A message appears, which you have to acknowledge with OK; then the command is terminated.
Import position(s) Imports the selected positions incl. project. The Dialog box Frame elements is started after the import. Here, you can, for example, insert the imported elements into the drawing. You will find further information in the section Frame element.
Close This closes the dialog box without any further action.
