OK, now some of you might have noticed that actually some items missing on this view here look in model
space.
We've got all our vegetation and our grass, this plum we've been doing, it's not there.
And this is the kind of layer controller talk about.
So we're going to I'm going to show you.
Well done.
We're going to set up our drawings now.
So I'm going to rename this one.
I'm going to call it site layout.
OK.
And then what I'm going to do.
Let me change this.
Call this site.
Lay out, although again, you can fill in all this with your initials and things, you can give it
a try.
No, let's just give it a number just so I can.
I'm going to call it.
Let's just say a free day.
I can't I cut.
I must be zero zero one.
OK, if you're in work place, you love a number system given to you for a project or if it's your own
projects, make it whatever you want.
But we're going to call it that and again would fill in.
All this would have sort of change the scale.
This is now 200 have of revision.
You'd have to do all that stuff.
You don't need it to show you how to edit text.
So this is all slightly off.
Now I'm going to save up.
I'm going to copy this.
I'm going to right click this tab and I'm going to go to move.
I'll copy.
I'm going to make sure I select, create a copy clip, move to end.
I'm going to say, OK, I'm in this one.
I'm going to right click it, go to rename, and I will call this, let's call it.
Landscaping.
OK.
I'm going I'm going to do it again, so we've got another example.
Make sure you click on, create a copy and move to and it creates a new one.
I'm going to run right click Rename.
Markings.
OK, so now we've got free drones.
You might have more, it depends really how many you need to think, how you would separate what you
want to show to different people.
If you want to join to give to a landscaper, they don't need to know of road markings.
They don't need to know much about the building.
They just want to know the landscaping and some of these drones.
Some of the drones you do, you can have a lot of tax.
If you need to be telling people all about things, maybe the paving you need to describe a type of
paving, slump, size and many different types of pavement.
You're going to end up with a lot of notes, maybe a lot of dimensions.
So by separating your drawings, you can just have those dimensions to give to the paving contractor.
He's not going to say all the notes about the landscape and a mess things because he's trying to filter
out, which notes it needs to refer to and which don't concern him.
You can have a joint specially for that person, so each project you, you divide, you joins up depending
on the people they need to go to really.
And the amount of information and we're just going to do is, for example, another main site layout
which will have everything on.
We'll have landscaping, which will just be things for landscape, more road markings, which will just
be for a marking contractor.
OK, so site layout.
Now I'm going to turn, I'm going to leave the vegetation off of oak because I quite like this for the
site layout.
This is going to show how the buildings are laid out in relation to get off a site boundary.
The building's laid out and maybe a few dimensions for this kind of copper kerbs in this car park on
this island, and that will be it.
OK, so make sure are in paper space and let's go up and let's do linear dimension.
And we're going to set out this boundary.
So go from that corner to that corner and we can say this this dimension here.
It's actually not too bad.
Sometimes, you know, it's a cat, you dimensions will be all over the place.
I can demonstrate that I'll delete if I go to this annotation top.
So we've already got a style here.
I'm going to just say so.
I've got standards, so I'm going to go to.
So I'm going to put our first dimension on what will happen.
Will will set a to style, but first, let's just see how it looks with a standard also cat damage.
So it's just a line.
We do have an arrowhead.
It's very small.
I'm assuming we have some text.
It's very small.
We've got four decimal places.
It doesn't look very good.
So what we'll do?
Well, this one dimension.
And I will go with a arrow size of this try.
OK.
I'm going to do the extension line five five.
OK, so these options here, these if you click on the properties of a dimension of mean to you want
to change lines and arrows, which obviously refers to this part of the dimensional lines of the arrows
and text.
Again, this is quite basic stuff.
So in this course, you probably know this already, but generally I find having these set to.
The same, so five Arrow sighs and whatever you choose is a good arrow size, choose that same figure
for the extension of me offset.
OK.
So that extension as well.
So you've got those things to change now.
We'll have a look at tax unless the other side should give you a guide to how your tax would look.
So if we put five in, OK, you can see your tax comes up quite well.
Now I don't like this tax when it's sandwiched in this line, I like to be able to move the text.
Sometimes if I try to move it, it's going to move a whole dimension line.
Sometimes you just want to move up the text out the way of something, maybe something a brief or a
note or something like that.
So I like to change based and the.
You see, it says, keep damage in line with text.
I like to say move text, and I don't need an arrow.
You just end up with too many arrows.
So move text no later.
And now we can just select the text.
And if we move out of line, we can just put a text like that, OK?
And he gives you more control over how that dimension looks.
Now this settlement, we don't need four decimal places.
It's 110 meters.
So under.
Primary units, if you scroll down in your properties, you can change.
I'm going to go with zero four site layout and the last thing I want to do with this dimension, I want
meters.
OK, I want to make sure people know it's in meters.
You could edit the text so you can double click this and you could put an end after every dimension.
But if you're going to do it, it's easier to just click you dimension and under here you will find
you can have prefix and suffix.
So obviously a prefix will put a symbol before the dimension text suffix after.
So if we just put me in there for meters now, we're going to get this.
In fact, what I'm going to do, I'm going to go just because we might have.
Some can't quite remember if we would have decimal.
I'm going to go with one decimal place, at least.
OK.
And if you prefer comma instead of a dot as your separator was also and where we just were with the
prefix and suffix, so you can see decimal separator, we can have what you want.
You could have a question mark if you want to know why you would, but then you go.
So what are the other properties in here which are probably aware of?
But once you're happy with this dimension and you can click it, right click.
And if you see this dimension style, say this new style lets you for a name.
I'm just going to call this a free day.
OK?
Call it what you want.
And now go up to this annotate tab.
Amazing.
This is this your dimension?
This is your current style.
So by putting it down, you will say we have a free day.
This is a style which just created.
We've selected her now.
All our dimensions will automatically come in in this style.
