Show Reference Lines

You can toggle Reference lines on/off by toggling the setting in the Scene View Options menu, clicking the Show Reference Lines button in the scene toolbar or by using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl+9

Web/Chord Labels

You can change the information that is displayed on webs and non-web members (i.e. chords and end verticals) in the scene by toggling the Web label and Non-web label settings, respectively. By default we display the member name.

Show Field-Installed Members

If you have some members that are marked as Is Field Installed you can choose whether you would like to show those in the scene.

Show Plates, Plate Names, Plate Details

The following settings let you control the amount of detail that is shown for plates. The default setting is to show plates and their names. You can also choose to show/hide details for the most common plate types and plate sizes on your truss.

Note

Plates will not display on un-analyzed trusses unless they were first manually added. Plates are automatically added during analysis.

Show Gravity Loads as Unprojected

This setting is on by default and changes how loads are displayed on a truss when viewing load settings.

Show Manual Loads When No Other Loads Visible

By default, we will show Manual Loads in the scene when no other loads are being shown. You can toggle this off if you prefer.
