The Site Info Pane

The Site Info Pane displays all the object related information. It is present in the left navigation of the screen. Objects are described according to their own properties, properties of the class they fall in and the project file details. The site info pane provides this data via different tabs:

  • Info - Measurement related information for querying.
  • Object - Basic details like height, level and isKindOf*.
  • Class - Class inherited details like height, level and isKindOf*.
  • Project - Project file details.

* - Refer SFA Taxonomy

The Info Tab.

The info tab in the site info pane displays data like:

  1. Class (class of the current object)
  2. Currlen (distance between the two helpers)
  3. Angle (angle in which helpers are oriented)
  4. Area (Area of object)
  5. Perimeter ratio
  6. Perp (perpendicular distance between architect and first helper)
  7. ArchDist (actual distance berween architect and first helper)
  8. ArchPosition (position of architect on the TAD site)
  9. Volume (Volume of current object)

Note: The site info pane is a movable pane. It can be docked to either left side or right side of the screen. TAD is the first Object Oriented Designing Software. Hence, object properties are automatically given higher preference than class properties.
