Changing Structure Type

If you have a single-mast structure (single track cantilevers, two track cantilevers, twin/triple cantilevers, self supporting anchors, and attachment points) and you want to change its structure type, here's how you do it.


Step 1: Click the 'Edit' button in the 'Structures' section of the Lineardraft toolbar

This will open the structure selection window.

Step 2: Click on the structure you want to edit and click 'Edit'

Alternatively, you can select your structure from the drop-down menu. Clicking 'Edit' will open the 'Edit Structure' window.

Step 3: Click on the 'Type' dropdown and select a new structure type

This list includes all applicable single-mast structures. It is not possible to convert a single-mast structure to a portal

If you have any equipment, backties, or ornaments attached to your structure, any structure types that are not compatible with these components will not be shown in the drop-down menu.

Please note: When you change structure type, the mast bearing and foundation bearing are reset to their default positions for the chosen structure type.

Step 4: Click 'Update Structure'

This will close the 'Edit Structure' window and make your changes, updating the 3D model, structure symbol, and structure box information.
