_NOTOC_

N.B: To access this box in Opera Job Management: from Accessories menu, in Icon menu of the accessory, through the button File:Tastocomponiiconaaccessori.png:

This menu allows to create the filling icon by completing the entries through the drop-down menu, as shown in the figure.

• 'Name: shows the filling name
• Description: shows the filling description
• Show Quotas: Allows to see the thicknesses of the different components
  • Body: value in percentage to change the dimension of the quotas on the screen

The Type drop-down menu

With the type are chosen the various layers that make up the filling and the thickness identifies the size of each of them. This process will automatically create the filling icon. Among the choices we have:

• Glass: Single glass icon
• Pane: Pane icon
• Window duct: window duct icon
• Glass-Film: Glass icon with composition for inner film
• Film-Glass: Glass icon with composition for external film
• Film: Film icon

For each of these entries, it is possible to identify a Thickness in the designated field.

Then there are icons used mainly for curtain wall fillings, made of glass on the outside (created according to the specifications described above) and an insulated panel on the inside. For these choices have been made several icons called Backpan # that have different designs and an entry Norton tape' that simulates an adhesive insulation.

For each of these entries it is possible to identify several parameters:

• Thickness that identifies the space that will occupy the component in the filling thickness
• Depth: identifies the panel thickness
• 'Offset: identifies the position relative to the glass dimension.

In the last line we find useful information to verify the accuracy of the entered data:

• Filling thickness: is the total filling space defined in the thickness field of the personal data
• Component thickness: is the sum of the thicknesses of the entered components.
• Difference: is the difference between the filling thickness and the components thickness, which will result in zero.

Custom type

It is possible to specify a custom type, going to create a DXF icon not provided in the Opera archive.

The file should be like the others present and at a scale of 1:1 and should be saved in the folder C:\OPERAcs\glasses'
