Level Calculations
Level calculations take place in a cascading fashion. Parameters as well as geometric calculations are used.
This is the order of level detection:
-
Parameters
-
Legacy 'Project Levels' method (generally no longer used)
-
Geometric calculation based on Control Model
When your project has multiple Buildings on the same site, you will need to configure each File to belong to a specific Building.
However, Deep Space does not yet support Geometric calculation of levels on multi-Building projects.
