local file
A copy of the project file that resides on the computer system of the team member who is working
on the file. When worksharing is used to distribute project work among team members, each member uses
a local file to work on his or her workset (functional area). Team members periodically save their changes
to the central file so that others can see the changes and update their local files with the latest project
information.
For more information, see
Working in a Team
on page 1189.
location line
A vertical plane in a wall that is used for dimensioning. You create a wall by sketching the
location line of the wall in a plan view or a 3D view. You specify what to use for the location line in the
element properties of the wall: the wall centerline, core centerline, interior or exterior wall face, or interior
or exterior face of wall core.
In the following illustration, the green dashed lines indicate the location line of the wall. See
Walls
on page
561.
lock
To secure a dimension or the location of an element so that it cannot be changed. When you select a
locked dimension or element, a lock control displays next to it.
The following drawing shows a locked dimension. See
Locking Permanent Dimensions
on page 222.
You can also use the Pin Position command to restrict the movement of elements. See
Preventing Elements
from Moving
on page 311.
M
mark
A unique identifier that you assign to an element in its properties. (Compare with

You can include marks in schedules and tag labels. For example, the following site plan shows marks for
individual parking spaces. These marks are also listed in the parking schedule.
