materials assigned to components of slabs
The default slab and roof slab tools provided with the software use standard styles. You can use these as provided, edit
the standard styles in the Style Manager, or create your own styles and use them to make new tools.
Using Materials in Slab/Roof Slab Styles
You can control how slabs/roof slabs of a particular style are displayed in a drawing by assigning materials to the
slab/roof slab components in the style. The components are then displayed using the display properties of the assigned
materials. For more information see “
Material Components and Display Properties ” on page 510.
AutoCAD Architecture provides predefined materials for common design purposes. You can use these materials as
provided, modify them to meet your project requirements, or define new materials. For more information about
materials and how to define them, see “
Creating and Editing Material Definitions ” on page 522 and “ Specifying the
Material of a Slab/Roof Slab ” on page 1345.
Creating Tools from Slab/Roof Slab Styles
You can create a slab or roof slab tool from a slab or roof slab style by dragging the style from the Style Manager onto
a tool palette. The default settings provided by the style are then applied to any object created with that tool. For more
information, see “
Using Tools to Create Slabs and Roof Slabs ” on page 1306.
Managing Slab/Roof Slab Styles
To create, copy, edit, or purge styles for slabs and roof slabs, you use the Style Manager, which you can access from the
Format menu or from the Properties palette for slab/roof slab tools or objects. The Style Manager provides a central
location in AutoCAD Architecture where you can work with styles from multiple drawings and templates. For more
information, see “
Style Manager ” on page 490.
Creating a Slab or Roof Slab Style
