Converting elements

Module(s): General: Roofs, Planes, Sections + Basic: Walls, Openings, Components + Stairs + 3D Modeling + Bridge and Civil Engineering

You can use the Convert Elements tool to convert Allplan elements to different types of elements. The data are converted in the current document.

Note: Below is a list of tools from other modules that can be applied to architectural elements; it is not necessary to switch to different modules.

What do you want to do?

Convert architectural elements to 2D elements

Convert architectural elements to 3D solids

Convert 2D design entities to 3D lines

Convert 3D curves to 3D polylines

Convert bridge and civil engineering components to 3D solids

General general 3D elements to 3D solids, 3D surfaces

Convert 3D solids to user-defined architectural elements

Convert rooms to 2D polylines

Note: When you convert architectural elements to 3D solids, the main architecture-specific properties will be retained.
