‘Storey activity’ is a tool that allows for visualising of the model entities based on storey allocation. Allocated members on a (or multiple) storey(s) can be displayed and edited in the Scia modelling environment while all other entities are hidden.
This activity option is located on the Activity Toolbar and it contains three buttons – ‘Activity by storey,’ ‘Move activity by storey up,’ ‘Move activity by storey down.’
There are three ways to use ‘Storey activity.’
The options linked to ‘Activity by storey’ define which type of activity is used – ‘Single storey activity,’ ‘Unallocated members’ or user-defined settings.
The user can only activate a single storey. All storey levels are available for selection via the combobox.
A model may contain members that are not allocated to any storey. There are also object types which cannot be allocated to any level at all (linegrids, a storey itself, etc.). Those items can be displayed by the option ‘Unallocated members.’
The third option displays selected levels together. This type can be created by user.
The user selects the active levels by checkboxes. All storeys can be activated and deactivated at once by the two buttons at the bottom right corner of the dialogue.
The ‘Storey activity’ dialogue may contain more user-defined settings to address different needs. New settings can be added by the button ‘New’ on the toolbar. The names of settings are user-defined.
The two additional buttons can be used only when the storey activity is selected.
The first one moves the storey activity in the dialogue to the next one, the second to the previous.
