Overview

The CAD settings are related to the CAD import and export functionality.

The Quality slider determines the default value used for CAD import. This quality can also be adjusted directly from the CAD window.

The default CAD application will be used for CAD export. 

CAD Application

Open

Layer name Luminaires

The regular luminaires will be exported to this layer.

The color will determine the color of all luminaires.
