A display set can contain more than one display representation for an object. For example, a display set for plotting a
floor plan might include the Plan and Threshold Plan display representations for doors.
■
The Plan display representation contains components for the door panel, frame, stop, and swing.
■
The Threshold Plan display representation contains components for the inner and outer thresholds of the door.
Plan and Threshold Plan display representations used alone and together to display a door
If a display set contains no display representations for an object, the object is not displayed when that display set is
used. For example, a display set for a reflected ceiling plan does not need representations for railings, which typically
are not shown in these drawings.
Display Sets and View Direction
A display set is not dependent on view direction, although it usually is designed with a specific view in mind. For
example, a Reflected display set is intended to be used to display objects from the Top view direction in a reflected
ceiling plan.
Similarly, a Plan display set might contain Plan display representations for a number of objects intended for
two-dimensional (2D) top views. A three-dimensional (3D) model display set might contain the Model display
representation for a number of objects. The display representations included in a display set depend on what
representations are available for each object, and whether objects need to be drawn differently from different view
directions.
Default Display Sets
Drawings based on templates provided with AutoCAD Architecture contain display sets for many purposes. All drawings,
even those that are not created from templates, contain the following default display sets: Elevation, Model, Model
High Detail, Model Low Detail, Plan, Plan High Detail, Plan Low Detail, and Reflected. These display sets contain display
representations for each object based on the most common design situations.
Display Configurations
A display configuration is a collection of display sets assigned to view directions.
Display Configurations,Viewports, and Templates
A display configuration typically is created for a specific design task or drawing type. To use a display configuration,
you assign it to a viewport. Drawings based on templates provided with AutoCAD Architecture contain layout tabs
with viewports to which appropriate display configurations are assigned. You can use the configuration assigned to a
viewport, assign a different one, or customize the configuration.
