Essential Guide to Modules (Openings)
Modules
A module is a predefined detail set within the Wall Details of a door or window component.
These are visible in the hsbMODEL as a different colour from the standard timbers.
This colour can be set in the hsbGeneral\Colours as shown below.
BLOCK_WARNING_START
When you Update hsbdesign the settings will go back to the default colour
BLOCK__END
Creating modules
Any configuration of timbers can be created manually as a module by using the hsbCAM Menu Structure.
Points to Note
When creating modules use the following guidelines.
Try not to have a space of less than 30mm between modules. This is critically important when using automated manufacturing wall lines.
Ensure that when 2 modules are beside each other, that these are removed as a module and recreated again using the create module command as a single module.
When manually creating a module component (i.e multi stud configuration) that this is created as a module even if the timber colours are set to represent a module.
