In SpinFire Ultimate, a 2D document consists of a “page” onto which one or more drawings, measurements, and/or notes may be placed. A drawing may be composed of one or more layers, depending on its native CAD file contents.
You can pan and zoom in on a the page and change the viewport background color. Also, from the File menu, you can export to an image file, PDF, 3D PDF, or HSF. You can also convert your native CAD file to .A3D format directly. See Working with Documents.
Commands
The 2D Document Toolbar provides easy access to a variety of linear, angular, and radial measurements. You can also attach notes to the scene background and selected points and edges. In addition, the toolbar enables you to override default measurement units and markup color settings.
Browsers
Also on the 2D Document Toolbar is the assembly pane icon (highlighted in the screen shot on this page), which enables you to show/hide browser information.
The Drawing browser pane displays a hierarchical tree that that can be expanded or compressed to show or hide components of the drawing. For example, if you want to hide the section labeled ISOMETRIC VIEW, clear the checkbox associated with that object—in this case, Drawing View 4. To make the object visible again, select the checkbox (or right-click the layer and make a selection from the context menu).
The Notes browser displays any markups you may have added to the drawing.
