Issue

There are some instances when the spacing of the bar ranges in 2D drawing is not giving the correct values as required. The program would give 3mm instead of 300mm spacing. This problem occurs when the initial modeling of the bars isn't done in the resolution prescribed by ProStructures.

For resolution settings of ProStructures, please visit this Article.

If one is having a different resolution setting, but needs to model the ProStructure elements. We recommend to use custom Primary/Secondary Units for their Dimension Styles instead of Working units (from design file settings)

Steps to resolve

1. In the 2D Rebar Drawings, open and manage the dimension styles.

2. Select the Style (None) and go to Units tab.

3. Uncheck the Working Units option and set the Master and Sub Units as required.

4, Update the Rebar Attributes.
