PointSense settings

“

- [Instructor] Before you begin to work with your project, we can take a quick look at some of the configurations settings that will allow you to adjust PointSense to suit your needs. We're going to have a look at the PointSense panel. We're going to come down to our PointSense settings. Again, this is something that's more for advanced users, but I'm just going to give you a quick walkthrough. If we look at some of the options that we have for configuration, for example in AutoCAD, you can change the left mouse button. So, using Control and the left mouse button, if you want to start the 3D orbit. When you're working with layers, we can control the layers, for example 3D dimension. We can change the layer name right here. There's a number of different options that we can use here. If were working with PointSense Building, some of these options that you have here are just user preference, text size and dimension. Again, we're not going to get into this. This is a little bit more advanced for this level of training. But, this is where you go to look and make changes to some of these custom settings. This might help you keep with some of your drafting standards by creating the right layers, line types, and colors. Just to recap here, most of the settings you see here are for advanced users, and they apply to applications that are not all available in PointSense Building, but it's always good to know options are available and where to find them on the ribbon menu.
