Summit WMScanner Users Guide34
Building Wizard This command launches the Building Wizard, which is used to format, edit,
and assemble building floors. The Building Wizard operates within the current
Project Workspace and does not necessarily perform operations in the currently
open drawing. In fact, accessing this menu command can force you to save the
file you currently have open before proceeding. For details, see “Format
Building Menu” on page 165.
Insert Contains options for adding a raster image or other types of drawing file to the
current drawing. See “Importing Images Using Insert” on page 183 for further
details.
Format CAD Drawing The Format CAD Drawing command is used to quickly and easily convert layers
and entities in an AutoCAD drawing provided by a customer or end-user, into
entities that are recognized by Summit WMScanner. This command will
process the layers of the currently open drawing. This same functionality is
available through the Building Wizard which operates on the current workspace
as opposed to the currently open drawing file. For details, see “Model
Building” on page 165. The process of formatting a CAD drawing is described
in detail in “Importing an Unformatted File” on page 176.
Edit The
Edit menu provides the standard Windows file editing capabilities. See
“Edit Sub-menu” on page 35for more details.
Zones This command allows you to draw logical zones in the floor plan. These zones
can be of three different types - Reader Zones, GeoFencing Zones, and
Locationing Zones. See “Drawing Zones” on page 185 for more details.
Draw Partition This command opens the
Partition Draw dialog box that enables you to add
new partitions to the drawing. See “Drawing Partitions” on page 196 for
details.
Change Partition Type This command allows you to change the type of RF attenuating material that is
associated with a particular wall in the drawing. See “Convert Partition Type”
on page 183 for details.
Change Partition
Height
This command allows you to modify the height of processed partition.
Change Partition Floor This command allows you to move entities on the current floor to another floor.
Current Partition
Categories
The Current Partition Categories command allows the user to define eight
different types of obstructions being used in the current drawing. It also allows
the user to change the color of the corresponding partition categories by
selecting any color from the color drop-down box next to the partition category.
Categories available for use in drawings are defined in the partition library,
which is editable using the Format
Building > Edit Partition Library menu
command. The Partition Library serves as a reference of obstruction
information. Entities from the Partition Library are selected for use in Summit
WMScanner drawings using the Current Partition Categories menu command.
Edit Partition Library Edit Partition Library allows the user to add, remove, and edit different
partition categories. Entries in the Partition Library do not affect partitions in
the current drawing. To use a new partition type in the current drawing, create
the partition type with the Edit Partition Library command, and then make it
one of the current partition categories with the Format Building > Current
Partition Categories command.
Remove-Purge
Unnecessary Drawing
Information

to the main layers that will be processed into RF attenuating partitions.
