Gemini Metrix Properties¶
Use this dialog to specify which files should represent estimated and executed quantities when registering to Gemini Metrix. The dialog lets you link estimated and executed files, create an executed file from an estimated file, and shows which files are linked.
Where do I find the dialog?¶
On the toolbar, select Gemini Metrix Properties...
Using the dialog¶
On the left side of the dialog, the files in the active drawing are listed. Use this to specify Type and Interval for the individual files. By right-clicking you have access to Create executed and Create executed and link from files with Type Estimated.
Use the buttons Link and Unlink to specify files of type Executed and Estimated that together form a pair.
On the right side of the dialog, an overview of these file pairs is shown in the Linked models field.
Field descriptions¶

The right side of the dialog, Linked models, shows pairs of files that are already linked between estimated and executed files.

The dialog controls selections so you can only link an estimated file to an executed file, and prevents linking files that are already linked.
