Reinforcement group sections can be shown and controlled by section arrows.

For this feature to work you need to add the attached file (RcGroupViewSectionArrow.dwg) in the "template_drawings" folder on the company-level of your standard.

By adding this file, section arrows are drawn in the reinforcement group view/line-up the next time those views are drawn/updated.

By adding the section arrows the user has more control over where the sections are taken and how many sections are taken (section arrows can be moved and deleted) .

There's also a new command for adding section arrows to a reinforcement group view/line-up...

... and a new command for editing section arrows in a reinforcement group view/line-up...

In both cases the tolerance for the section can be set.

There's also a new command for updating/redrawing the reinforcement group drawing view, this can typically be used after a section has been added, edited, moved or deleted.

There's a new reinforcement default setting, "GROUP_VIEW_SECTION_NAME" for naming of the sections (the text beside the section arrow).

The setting have the following macros:

"$A" which will be replaced with "A", "B", "C", "D", etc

"$1" which will be replaced with "1", "2", "3", "4" etc.

Default is "$A".

If there's only one section in a reinforcement group the name is omitted.

There's a new reinforcement default setting, "GROUP_VIEW_SECTION_TITLE" for naming of the section title (the text below the section).

The setting have the following macros:

"$NAME" which will be replaced with the name of the section.

"$MARK" which will be replaced with the reinforcement group's mark.

Default is "$NAME".
