confused Polylines

Hello there!

I'm trying to use Polylines to lay out the electric cables though the apartment and I'm having some… questions.

1. How do I add points to the already existing polyline? I just can't find how to do it or it's not possible? (Example what I need below)



2. How to measure the total length of the polyline? Only manually?

3. Maybe there are better ways to do electric cables in the program which I'm not aware of? Or some plugins help with that?

Re: Polylines

In your case, I would use very thin walls...

Re: Polylines

@1. -Install AdvancedEditing plugin;
-Select the polyline;
-Edit points...
-New (on bottom left).

@2. To have the length I use HORIZONTAL cylinder, export to CSV then in Calc or Excel make the sum;
I use this also for pipes.
NOTE: the cylinder MUST be horizontal in library to keep the correct length in any position or angle.

@3. Read @1 & @2.
Good luck and patience!

Re: Polylines

Hello,
I just tried to add points to an existing polyline but I can't find the menu item "Edit points" when I have a polyline selected.
I have the AdvancedEditing plugin installed.
What do I wrong?

Thanks and
Best Regards
Harald

Re: Polylines

I just found the solution;
The "Edit points" menu item does not appear in the right mouse button menu but only if you have a polyline selected under Plan main menu item.
Hope this clarification helps other users too.
