You will be prompted to enter the Position data (distances to the
right and down) of the block. Pressing Return at a prompt leaves that
value unchanged.

NOTE: Content blocks may have size or position values that are outside
the specified borders, but will not appear if values exceed the limits
of the full drawing display.

PART 2. SHEET FUNCTIONS LAYOUT 2.0 User Manual Page 10

2.3.4 INVENTORY ITEMS - press or <1> to <6>

Pressing a number key allows you to edit that inventory item. If you
press you will be serially prompted to edit all six.

The number of characters in each inventory item is determined by the
sizes set in the Set Titles/Printer Type menu (see 3.1.5 INVENTORY
COLUMNS). If the sizes are changed after the data has been entered it
may be neccessary to reedit all of the content blocks.


2.4 DRAWING THIS SHEET

Each block is drawn and printed with the following variations
according to the values shown on the display:

1) Blocks with all four values for size and position specified
will be drawn as a box on the screen and the printout.

2) If the name of the block starts with an asterisk (*) the
name will not appear on the printout. Otherwise the name
will be printed in the approximate center of the box.

3) If the size of a block is set at zero (blank on the
display), a box will not be drawn. The block name will
appear on the printout at the specified position.

4) Block names may be indented up to 8 spaces to change the
place where they print.

The Drawing function is accessed by pressing at the Function menu.
The Framework and Content values for the active sheet will be adjusted
by the drawing ratio and then used to draw a graphic screen.

Content block boxes, walls, doors, windows, index marks, and filled-in
squares representing the four corners of the drawing area will be
drawn in that order.

The position of each content block for which information has been
entered will be indicated by it's item letter on the screen.

The drawing is a proportional draft of what will be put on paper when
the sheet is printed except that full block names will be printed
instead of just the item letters.

The Plan Title, Sheet number and name, area length and width, drawing
units and ratio, index interval, and the instructions for continuing
will be displayed in the sidebar on the left-hand side of the screen.

A beep will sound. Pressing returns you to the Function menu. You
can modify the drawing by pressing or to make changes to
values on the Framework or Content menus -- the drawing will reappear
when you exit from either.

PART 2. SHEET FUNCTIONS LAYOUT 2.0 User Manual Page 11

2.5 PRINTING THIS SHEET

When you are satisfied with the appearance of the drawing, you may
send it to the printer by pressing

.

NOTE: Printing can also be done by pressing

on the Function Menu.

The drawing will be displayed without the area content block item
letters -- just the way it will be put on paper.

A message in the left-hand sidebar will remind you to set the selected
type of printer "on line". If you have a printer buffer attached, make
sure it too is turned on.

NOTE: The Printer Type can be set on the Set Titles/Printer Type menu
-- see paragraph 3.1.3.

The reports in LAYOUT are printed on 9 inches per page. For one inch
top and bottom margins on a dot matrix printer, the paper should be
set so that the first line will print one inch down from the top of a
new page.

The margins for a laser printer are set automatically.

Press

again when you are ready, or to abort the printing.

If the printer is still not ready to print, you will see a second
prompt that reminds you to make it ready or to exit without printing.

A message will acknowledge that printing has started. Be patient !
Aproximately 44k characters must be sent to the printer one at a time.

Depending on the speed of your equipment, printing a sheet on a dot
matrix printer may take up to 3 minutes, on a laser printer about 1
minute.

A single page will be printed that contains the titles and dimensions
of the sheet, the graphic screen drawing with the full name of each
block, and lists of the information on file for all doors, windows,
and area content blocks.

3.1.1 PLAN TITLE - press

The Plan Title, as displayed in the banner, is used to identify the
LAYOUT file that is currently being used and is the name that appears
on the File Selection display. Edit it using the techniques explained
in Part 1, paragraph 1.6. Press Return when finished, or press the ESC
key if you do not wish to record the change.


3.1.2 SHEET NAME - press

The name of the currently active sheet is also displayed in the banner
and is the name that appears on the Sheet Selection display. It can be
edited using the technique described in Part 1.

PART 3. FILE FUNCTIONS LAYOUT 2.0 User Manual Page 13

3.1.3 PRINTER TYPE - press

Printing may be done either with an Epson compatible dot matrix
printer or an HP LaserJet laser printer.

When you press you will see a display of the Printer Types that
are to be used to print all reports. Enter a code number or press
Return for no change.

NOTE: The program expects that the printer you select is the DOS
default PRN device.


3.1.4 INVENTORY COLUMNS - press <1> to <6>

This function enables you to design the format of the printed
Inventory and the .CSV file that can be created for the active file.

When you press a number key, you will be prompted to enter the size
for that column number (press Return for no change) and then to edit
the title for the column.

As indicated in the display, there are a maximum of 66 characters for
the titles of the columns and for the data in each column for each
Content Block (see below).

The column size determines how the 66 characters are divided among the
columns -- i.e. the title and data for column 1 use the first group of
characters. Column 2 starts at the place where column 1 ends, column 3
starts at the place where column 2 ends, etc.

If you try to exceed the maximum, the higher number columns will be
reduced in size by the program (highest first).

NOTE: Changing a column size will change the title space and location
at which all subsequent titles begin -- the titles and content block
data may have to be reedited.

PART 3. FILE FUNCTIONS LAYOUT 2.0 User Manual Page 14

3.2 PRINT INVENTORY - press

A message will remind you to set the selected type of printer "on
line". If you have a printer buffer attached, make sure it too is
turned on.

The inventory is printed on 9 inches per page. For one inch top and
bottom margins on a dot matrix printer, the paper should be set so
that the first line will print one inch down from the top of a new
page. The margins for a laser printer are set automatically.

Press any key when you are ready.

If the printer is still not ready to print, you will see a second
prompt that reminds you to make it ready or to exit without printing.

The print-out contains the data from all of the sheets on the current
file and is divided into titled sections for each sheet -- multiple
pages are printed if needed.

The first line on each page carries the Plan Title and the current
date. The second line carries the inventory column titles set in the
Set Titles/Printer Type menu. For clarity, the columns are separated
from each other by the 3 characters " | "

The data for each Sheet starts with a line that carries the sheet
number/total and the sheet name.

This is followed by a line for each content block that lists the sheet
number, block letter, block name, and the inventory data entered for
the block in columns separated as above.

NOTE: The Inventory data will NOT be printed on the report or included
in the .CSV file (see section 3.3) if a content block is empty, the
name of the block starts with an asterisk (*), or the length or width
of a block is set at zero.


3.3 MAKE A .CSV FILE - press

Many spreadsheet programs can import data directly from a "comma
separated value (.CSV)" file -- an ASCII file formatted with commas
between data for columns and a carriage return for a new row.

This function will create a file of that type with the same file name
as the current .LY2 file but with the .CSV extension.

The file will contain the plan title and column title lines and then
all of the sheet information described above (no page breaks). The 3
character column separator is replaced by commas between data items.

HINT: When importing this file, set the width of the first column of
the spreadsheet to 32, the others to each Inventory Column Size + 2.

The information in the sidebar and the data for drawing the four doors
and the one window can be changed on the Framework menu.

Press to view that menu. Press Return to come back to the drawing.

The four letters in the drawing area (A-D) show the locations where
the names for each of the doors will be printed on paper. These
locations can be changed on the Contents menu. Press to bring up
the Contents menu.

Note the block names assigned to each of the letters. Since the size
(Len and Wid) of each of these blocks is zero (blank) no box will be
drawn. The names will be printed in the positions defined for each.

We will discuss other aspects of the Area Contents menu later in this
manual. Press Return to come back to the drawing.

Remember, you can print a sheet at any time by pressing

at the

Distances on a drawing can be difficult to evaluate without some
indication of the scale of the drawing. Let's add indexing marks to
this sheet.

Press . A list of the available indexing types will "pop up" on the
screen. Select code number 1 (Tick marks). The new index type will be
indicated on the display. Press Return to go back to the drawing.

The whole drawing area is now outlined on all 4 sides by a series of
short vertical and horizontal dashes. The distance between marks is
defined by the index interval. Because of variations in monitors,
horizontal distances should be compared only with the top or bottom
row of marks, vertical distances with the left or right column.

Go to the Framework menu and reset the index type to "Grid lines" and
return. The drawing area is now divided into a set of squares.
Although the drawing seems somewhat crowded, grid lines can be useful
in determining the amount of floor-covering needed for a room -- in
this case for example, the number of 12 inch square floor tiles.

Press on the Framework menu, set the interval to 36, and return to
the drawing -- the grid now shows the amount of carpeting needed in
square yards.

PART 4. A PRACTICAL EXERCISE LAYOUT 2.0 User Manual Page 18

The next thing we will evaluate is the Drawing Ratio.

First set the index type as grid lines and the index interval at 36.
Now examine the drawing. The sidebar shows that the area is 204 inches
long, 132 inches wide, and is drawn "Full size".

Since the dimensions are within the maximum limits (240 L x 192 W),
the drawing fits completely on the screen.

Press to bring up the Framework menu and then press to see a
display of the available drawing ratios. Enter code 3 (Half) and
return to the drawing.

The sidebar now shows that the drawing is "Half size".

Although you have not changed the sizes and positions of the
structures, all measurements have been cut in half and therefore only
occupy half their normal distance on the screen.

The grid lines still represent the same interval (36 inches) but there
is now room for twice as many squares on the screen.

Take a few minutes and explore the effects of enlarging or reducing
the drawing ratio. Note that all sizes and positions are
proportionally adjusted for drawing and that only those parts of the
sheet that will fit are drawn -- the rest do not appear.

When you are finished, reset the Ratio to "Full size", the index type
to "Tick marks", the interval to 12, and return to the drawing.

For the next part of this exercise we will be changing some of the
numbers used to create the drawings. Before we do that we want to have
a picture of the sheet and a record of what the current numbers are.

Press

(to print). The drawing will be redisplayed without the item
letters of the content blocks -- the graphic portion of the drawing
now looks just like it will be printed.

The sidebar messages are to remind you to set your printer "online"
-- make sure you have set the appropriate printer type for your
equipment.

When the printer is ready, press

again. The sheet will be printed.

PART 4. A PRACTICAL EXERCISE LAYOUT 2.0 User Manual Page 19

Since this sheet is the drawing of a room, the Drawing Area Borders
are specified to be "Walls". Press on the Framework menu, change
this value, and return to the drawing.

Depending on your choice the borders of the area will be drawn as
single lines (code 2) or not at all (code 3). Try out both. Note that
in these cases the doors and windows are not drawn, but the data for
them has not been lost. The blocks indicating the corners of the area
are always drawn.

Reset the Border value to "Walls" (code 1) and return to the drawing.

The length and width of the drawn area are listed in the sidebar.
These two numbers determine where the borders and the corner blocks
will be drawn.

Try changing the Horizontal or Vertical size on the Framework menu.

Note that the doors and windows will always be displayed according to
their positions and sizes within the walls specified by the listed
dimensions, even if the position or size of a door or window extends
the drawing beyond the new dimension.

The location of the item letters indicating where the door names will
be printed is NOT adjusted to changed dimensions. The locations must
be changed on the Area Contents menu.

Reset the area sizes to their original dimensions (204 x 132) and the
wall, door, and window drawings will be returned to their original
locations.

This sheet shows the presence of four doors in the walls of this room
(each indicated by a letter) and one window in the left-hand wall.

The data for the window and the doors, and for the door names, are
listed in the bottom part of the sheet you just printed.

The Wall, Position and Size data for the window and doors is a copy of
what appears on the Framework menu. The specifications for the door
names comes from the Area Contents menu.

As an exercise let's split the window into two 24 inch parts with 6
inches between them. Press to invoke the Framework menu.

Press and then <1> -- this lets you change Window number 1.

Then press to specify the left wall of the drawing.
For Lft Dn Position enter 40 and for Size enter 24.

This places a window that is 24 inches long starting 40 inches down
from the top in the left wall of the room.

Return to the drawing to observe the results of these entries.

PART 4. A PRACTICAL EXERCISE LAYOUT 2.0 User Manual Page 20

Now let's put in the second part of the window. On the Framework menu
select Window number 2 and specify that it too is in the left wall.

Since we want to leave 6 inches between windows, we must do a little
arithmetic as follows:
Window # 1 starts 40 inches down
and is 24 inches long
Window # 2 starts 6 inches down from the end of Window # 1
========
Adding these gives 70 as the starting position of Window # 2

Enter this value for the position of Window # 2 and again specify 24
as the size.

Return to the drawing. Note that we have now split the original 48"
window into 2 - 24" windows with 6" between them.

To restore the original window you would first clear Window # 2 -- on
the Framework menu press , <2>, and then .

Then select Window # 1 and respecify it as being in the left wall at
position 40 and size 48.

Return to the drawing to confirm that you have restored it to what it
looks like on the printout.

The same techniques are used for creating, changing, or clearing doors
-- start with instead of .

Now try putting windows and doors in other places on the drawing.

Note that if you overlap a door with a window, the window will be
drawn as specified but the door will not be drawn correctly and
extraneous marks will appear in the window.

This is because doors are drawn before windows -- the extraneous marks
are the door frames that were drawn after a portion of the wall was
erased for the door.

Examine the printout you have. From the specifications for the doors
note that Door # 3 is in the right wall, starts 84 inches down from
the top, and is 24 inches wide.

In the Area Contents information the block indicated by the item letter
"C" places that letter on the screen at the position Rt 210, Dn 96 and
will put the name "Study Closet" at the equivalent position on the
printout -- no box is drawn because the block sizes are blank.

Now clear Door # 3 on the Framework menu and return to the drawing.
Note that although the door no longer appears, the key letter is still
displayed. Remove it by blanking the block name on the Contents menu.

Now reset Door 3 and Block C to the specifications on the printout.

PART 4. A PRACTICAL EXERCISE LAYOUT 2.0 User Manual Page 21

To further examine the uses of the data entered on the Area Content
menu we will use a different sheet.

Return to the Function Menu, press to invoke the sheet select
function and choose sheet number 3, Study Bath & Closets.

Draw the sheet on the screen. You will see that this sheet is a
detailed continuation to the right of the sheet we just worked with.
Print a copy of this sheet.

The bottom part of the printout contains the specifications on file
for the blocks whose position on the drawing are indicated by the
letters A - H.

The specifications are reproduced in the following table.

Content Blocks - Size - Position
--- Name --- Len Wid Rt Dn
A.* bath-closets 112 2 0 60
B.* closet-closet 2 70 60 62
C.Counter 49 22 0 0
D. Sink 18 16 26 2
E. Toilet 21 29 54 0
F.Bath tub/shower 31 60 81 0
G.Linen Cabinet 41 8 0 52
H.Study Closet 8 96
I.Hall Closet 76 96

Block A is the horizontal interior wall between the bathroom and the
two closets. This wall goes the whole length of the drawing area (112
inches), is 2 inches thick, and starts at the left edge of the drawing
area (Position Rt 0).

Since the bathroom is 60 inches wide, the vertical position of the
wall is placed 60 inches down from the base point.

Block B is the vertical interior wall that divides the two closets. It
is 2 inches thick and runs the entire width of both closets (Wid = 70
inches).

Since the study closet is 60 inches long and this wall abuts on to the
horizontal wall, Block B's position is Rt 60 Dn 62.

The block names for these two items have been entered to identify the
walls in the data but they will not be printed as they each start with
an asterisk.

Blocks C - G draw and label the fixtures in the bathroom. Note that
the Sink and Toilet names have been indented to center the labels.

Blocks H and I put the closet names in the center of their areas.

PART 4. A PRACTICAL EXERCISE LAYOUT 2.0 User Manual Page 22

Now let's put some fixtures into the Study Closet. We will use the
following information.

Content Blocks - Size - Position
--- Name --- Len Wid Rt Dn
N.Clothing rod 60 1 0 72
O.Shoes 12 24 48 84
P.Shelves 60 18 0 114

Block N is a 1 inch thick rod that runs the whole length of the closet
and is 12 inches away from the top inside wall. It's Position Dn
therefore equals 12 plus the width of the bathroom (60).

Block O represents a 12 inch by 24 inch shoe rack placed against the
right hand wall of the closet (Position Rt = Closet length 60 - block
Len 12) directly opposite the door (Dn 84).

Block P outlines a set of 18 inch shelves along the full length of the
bottom wall of the closet.

Bring up the Contents menu and enter the information into Blocks N-P.
Return to the drawing and print a copy of it.

Now let's check our work. Return to the Function menu and press to
select a different LAYOUT file -- your changed file will be saved to
disk. Choose file number 2 and then sheet number 3. Print a copy.

Now go back to file number 1, sheet number 3. Compare the sheet from
file 2 (Apartment #101) to your printout of the same sheet from file 1
(Floor Plan C). If they do not match, make the needed corrections.

Before going any further, let's take a look at an overview of the
apartment. Go to the Function menu and select Sheet # 1. Draw it and
print a copy.

Since the dimensions of the whole apartment (480 x 276 inches) exceed
the physical limits of the screen (240 x 192) the drawing ratio for
this sheet has been set at Half size.

The drawing shows the whole apartment divided into a series of blocks
outlining the location and dimensions of each room in the apartment.
The position and size of the doors and windows in the external walls
of the apartment are shown.

Content Blocks are used to define a room or group of rooms. The
additional labels on this printout show the relationships of the
detail sheets where the placement of interior walls, doors, fixtures,
etc. are shown -- see your printouts of sheets 2 and 3.

Note that the numbers describing the actual dimensions of a block on
the overview are the same as those on the specific detail sheet for
the comparable structure -- the difference in the appearance of the
drawing is due to different drawing ratios.

PART 4. A PRACTICAL EXERCISE LAYOUT 2.0 User Manual Page 23

For example, the block outlining the area of the Workshop/Study on the
overview is 204 x 132 in size. Therefore the same dimensions are
specified for the walls on Sheet # 2.

From the overview we can see, for example, that the area drawn on
Sheet # 3 lies immediately to the right of that drawn on Sheet # 2.

Since both these sheets are drawn to the same scale (unit = inches,
ratio = full size) the two pieces of paper can be superimposed (right
wall of sheet 2 to left wall of sheet 3) to create a larger overall
plan of the apartment that includes all the detail.

Similarly, sheet 4 describes the area to the right of sheet 3, Sheet 5
the area below sheet 2, etc. (all drawn to the same scale).

The filled-in blocks printed at the intersections of the borders will
help you to match up adjoining sheets.

You can create a large composite area plan by cutting each sheet along
it's top and left-hand borders and, starting with sheet number 1 as
the base, paste adjoining sheets onto their relative positions.
The size of such a composite is limited only by your imagination.

Some other ways to use the features in LAYOUT are illustrated on other
sheets in the sample files.

Sheet # 4 (either file): - The living room actually has only three
walls. To remove the fourth wall from the drawing of the borders, a
door was placed the full length of the bottom wall.The structures that
lie across the hallway from the living room have been included on this
sheet -- see area content blocks E - H.

Sheet # 7 (either file): - the boundaries of this sheet include the
front part of the hallway, the kitchen, and the dining area. Door 1 is
the hallway closet door and Door 2 is the absent wall of the living
room. The interior walls lining the hallway are Blocks N and O. The
pass through and wall separating the kitchen and dining area are
Blocks Q and R.

The fixtures in the kitchen are in Sheet # 7 on both files. Sheet # 7
on file # 2 (Apartment #101) shows the furniture placed in the dining
area by the tenant and some entries have been made in the inventory
data.

Print a copy of the Inventory. Go to the Set Titles/Printer Type menu
and change some of the column sizes to see the effects on the column
titles and the content block inventory data.

The third sample file carries a miscellaneous collection of sheets to
demonstrate how other kinds of areas, besides floor plans, can be
described with LAYOUT. These samples illustrate how combinations of
drawing ratios and units, either fractional or whole, can be used to
describe any sized area.
