Assigning model segments to 2D/3D models

1.  On the Base Data menu, click > 2D/3D Models.

The 2D/3D Models list opens.

The attribute and attribute values of this network object type are shown in the list on the left, which consists of two coupled lists.

Note: In lists, you can use the  Attribute selection icon to show and hide attribute values (Selecting attributes and subattributes for columns of a list).

1.  In the list on the left, click the desired entry.

2.  On the list toolbar, select 2D/3D model segments in the Relations list box.

If in the list on the left, the selected 2D/3D model has already been assigned model segments, their attributes are displayed on the right, in the 2D/3D model segments list. The 2D/3D-model can be assigned either only one model segment, for example a single vehicle, or multiple model segments, for example, for a train that consists of individual model files for the traction head and several goods wagons.

A 2D/3D model of a pedestrian references only the first assigned model segment.

For each model selected in the list, you can add rows in the list on the right that each contain a model segment.

3.  To add a model segment to the list on the right, on the toolbar of the list, click the Add button .

The Edit 2D/3D Model window opens.

4.  At the top of the 2D/3D model segments section, click the button.

The Open window opens.

5.  Open the desired directory and select the file of your choice.

6.  Click the Open button.

If at the top, the 2D/3D model segments section has been expanded using the symbol, the model is displayed in the narrow preview at the top. You can add further models to it. This allows you to create a model from segments, e.g. a train that consists of models for a power car and several railway cars. In the 2D/3D model segments section, you can change the sequence of individual 2D/3D model segments and delete 2D/3D model segments (Defining 2D/3D models).

Below it, a large Preview window shows the selected 2D/3D model. If the 2D/3D model includes elements that move or change, e.g. doors or turn signals, an animation is displayed in the Preview window.

7.  Confirm with OK.

The attributes of the model segment are displayed in the 2D/3D model segments list, in a new row.

8.  To edit model segments in the list on the right, right-click the row header.

9.  Select the desired entry.

10.  Enter the desired data.

The data is allocated.

Tip: You can also assign model segments to models in the Select 3D model window (Defining 2D/3D models).
