In this chapter we will explain how to create a porthole from a fixed, an opening or a transom (the only possible types).

Note N.B: Before we begin, it is important to make sure that the profile chunks we want to edit into a porthole are all the same, and to do this we refer you to the chapter How to edit a type.We also recommend that you save the porthole types you create in your Types Archive.

The management of a porthole is always done through the dimensioning function, that is, by pressing the File:Quotation key.png button found both in the Design Sheet and in the General Data pane of the type.

Once we have selected a fixed type and have pressed the File:Quotation key.png button, we click on the File:Adarco.png button and open the Arch Data panel, where we will select porthole through the menu opened with the File:Arrowgiu.png button.

Click File:ok.png in the Arc Data frame and in the Design Sheet the type will be as shown in the figure below.

After changing the porthole measurements in the Type Dimensions field (if it is necessary), click on File:ok.png, exit the Design Sheet with the File:X.png button, and record the type in the archive.


Oblò a bilico

Once we have selected a porthole type and pressed the File:Quotation key.png button, we click on the File:Adarco.png button and open the Arch Data panel, where we will select porthole through the menu opened with the File:Arrowgiu.png button.

Click File:ok.png in the Arc Data frame and in the Design Sheet the type will be as shown in the figure below:

After editing the porthole measurements in the Type Dimensions field (if needed) and revising the movable frame accessories (hinges), click on File:ok.png, exit the Design Sheet with the File:X.png button, and register the type in the archive.


Oblò a vasistas con traverso

Before operating on the structure to create a porthole, it is necessary to add a traverse to the chosen type. To do this we click on the File:Multiply.png button and open the Multiplication Parameters pane, enter a transom and confirm.

The frame will look like the image on the side. Now we need to edit it to transform the lower part so that it is a fixed frame. To do this we click on the File:Edit.png button and in the Design Sheet we click on the profile to be edited; the Structure Definition Framework will open and, in the Structure field, we choose Fixed and register.

At this point we press the File:Quotation key.png button and click on the File:Adarco.png button. This will open the Arch Data panel, where we will select porthole through the menu opened with the File:Arrowgiu.png button.


Back in the Design Sheet, after changing the porthole measurements in the Type Dimensions field (if necessary) the completed structure will appear
