Overlays - 2D Document Clipping

Easily focus on important details in 2D layouts for clearer, faster coordination in 3D

The new clipping box for overlays in ALLPLAN lets users isolate exactly the 2D content they need when combining 2D layouts with 3D models. By defining and adjusting a visible area directly within the workflow in the 2D layout, irrelevant views, headers, or extra information can be excluded, ensuring only the essential details are displayed. With intuitive sizing and Undo/Redo functionality, the clipping box streamlines reviews, reduces visual clutter, and enhances clarity – making coordination faster, communication clearer, and presentations more effective for architects and engineers.
