Import Indoor Database into Urban Database

In urban mode, WallMan can import a building from an indoor-database. To do this, select the Import Indoor Database from the Objects menu. WallMan shows a dialog to select the file name of the indoor database. Only indoor databases which include at least one shape can be used. Besides this, at least one floor level must be defined for the indoor database. The building’s shape is copied to the clipboard from where it can be pasted to any place in the urban database.

If the Display indoor walls of imported buildings setting are active, the walls of the imported building are also displayed. The Properties dialog of imported buildings shows the file name and location of the indoor database. It is important that the imported file remains accessible for WallMan.
Note: In urban mode the shape of an imported building cannot be changed. However, imported buildings may be moved around on the map.
