Additional Information
In addition to these object properties there are a number of schedule properties that can be attached and calculated
for a space. For a full list, see “
Schedule Properties of Spaces
” on page 1721.
Using Space Tools to Create Spaces
Tools provided with AutoCAD Architecture let you quickly place spaces by selecting a space tool with a specific space
style and other predefined properties. You can use the tool with its default settings, or you can change any properties
that are not controlled by the style. You can also use space tools to create new spaces by applying tool properties to
existing objects.
Tool palette containing space tools
The default tool palettes in the workspace contain space tools that you can use and customize as needed. In addition,
the following catalogs provided with the software contain space tools that you can add to your tool palettes:
■
Stock Tool catalog
■
Sample Palette catalog
■
Design Tool catalog
For more information on accessing tools in these catalogs, see “
Content Browser
” on page 79.
Custom palettes created by your CAD manager or other users may also contain space tools with space styles and
properties that are customized for your projects or office standards.
Generating Associative Spaces
Associative spaces are bounded by objects that enclose the space. If the bounding objects change, the space is updated,
too. You would typically work with associative spaces if you have created your floor plan with walls, slabs, and roofs,
and you need to generate spaces for the documentation phase of the project.
