Overview

This ACOL variable in the Display.sys file allows to set up the color and line weight of the terminators of the label and delimiter lines while detailing concrete and rebar models in ProStructures

Method

1) Open the Display.sys file that is located at - C:\ProgramData\Bentley\ProStructures CONNECT Edition\Configuration\WorkSpaces\*Your WorkSpace*\Standards\ProStructures\Rebar\Detailing\Metric 

NOTE - The above mentioned path is the default location and may defer if you have installed the application at another folder path

2) Search for the ACOL variable (which would be located at line # 1377) and set the value to 1, 2


3) Save and close this file 

4) Now start the ProStructures application (restart if the application was open while making the above changes)

5) Place a new callout tool in the 3D model and you will observe that the terminators of the label and delimiter lines are created in accordance with the new parameters set in the ACOL variable

In this way, by setting up the value of the ACOL variable in the Display.sys file, one can control the display settings of the terminators of the label and delimiter lines for the 2D rebars in the drawing model
