Edit Panel Height of a Double Wall element

Edit Panel Height is a command, used for extending the Double wall panels at the top or the bottom edge of the element. It is possible to define the size of the new panel geometry and specify how many of the Double wall panels will be affected - Panel 1, Panel 2 or both of them.  

Go to IMPACT -> Double Wall falling menu -> Edit Panel Height command. You will be asked to select a panel, which will be edited. Once the panel is selected, it will be marked with yellow and the user will see a pop-up window, where the selected panel will be marked in a rectangular as well. It is possible to use Edit Panel Height command in a plan, elevation and 3D view in the Revit model.

Once the panel is selected, define the new geometry by clicking on points in the element. First, define the placement along the length of the element and secondly the size of the panel extension/recces. IMPACT will show a window displaying the selected points bt the user. Moreover, IMPACT will automatically detect whether it is the top or the bottom of the panel that the points are picked on. The user must preview the geometry values and edit them by writing in the window fields, if necessary.

Once the user presses on OK, the selected panel(s) will be edited according to the given geometry values. Take a look at the example below, where the height of Panel 2 is edited in the bottom of the element.
