User Guides#
This section contains detailed tutorials and guides for using Drawing Tools in various scenarios.
Available Guides#
Learn how to use the core wrapper classes: FeaturedDrawing, FeaturedSheet, and FeaturedView. Understand the delegation pattern and how to navigate the enriched drawing hierarchy.
Configure multi-language support for parsing view titles. Understand scale patterns, repetition patterns, and view type keywords.
Master the extraction and interpretation of view titles, including view types, identifiers, scales, text styles, and more.
Extract structured data from tables and title blocks in technical drawings. Learn about SheetTableDetector, TableCell, and GridCell.
Analyze balloon symbols in technical drawings. Detect parent/child relationships, multiplicator flags, and for-info flags (PM/FM). Access balloons at view level or sheet level.
Detect and query named sub-regions (sets) within a sheet. Identify subdivision lines, SET markers, and map views to sets.
Detect section line indicators (renvois de vues) showing where section cuts are made. Access identifiers, cross-references, and arrow directions.
Detect standalone view cross-references (auxiliary view indicators) that are not part of a title or section line indicator. Visualize all identifier-bearing objects together.
Complete reference of all @plot_data_view and @markdown_view
methods, with interactive examples for each FeaturedSheet overlay.
Advanced Topics (Not Yet Documented)#
The following guides provide placeholder information for features that are not yet fully available nor documented.
