Sets options for defining a set of new volumes by specifying a set of boundaries that make up a closed volume and a set of plates inside the closed volume that define individual compartments.

Volume Properties

Displays the Properties dialog, which allows you to set properties for the volumes that you are placing. See Compartment Properties Dialog, Ship Zone Properties Dialog, or Void Space Properties Dialog.

Select Outer Boundaries

Specifies the outer volume. The outer boundaries that you select must form a closed geometry. For example, you can select the hull and main deck.

  • Select Planes or Plates - Allows you to specify faces to define the outer volume.

  • Select Faces by 3D Range - Allows you to specify a three-dimensional range box using two diagonal points. You can select faces inside and overlapping this range.

  • Select Any Existing Volume - Allows you to select an existing volume in the model.

Select Inner Boundaries

Allows you to select faces inside the outer volume.

  • Select Planes or Plates - Allows you to specify faces to define the inner volumes.

  • Select Faces by 3D Range - Allows you to specify a three-dimensional range box using two diagonal points. You can select faces inside and overlapping this range.

  • Select All Faces - Allows you to specify the faces that intersect the outer volume chosen in Select Outer Boundaries .

Finish

Generates the defined volumes and exits the command.

Plate Filter

Restricts the selection of plates or grids to one of the following types:

  • Grid Planes and Plates - All plate systems, grid planes, and reference planes.

  • All Plate Systems - All plate systems.

  • Grid Planes - All grid planes and reference planes.

  • Water Tight Plates - Plate systems with the Tightness property defined as Water Tight.

  • Air Tight Plates - Plate systems with the Tightness property defined as Air Tight.

  • Oil Tight Plates - Plate systems with the Tightness property defined as Oil Tight.

  • Non Tight plates - Plate systems with the Tightness property defined as Non-Tight.

  • More - Opens the Select Filter dialog, where you can define a custom filter. As an example, you can restrict selection to the reference planes of one coordinate system when multiple coordinate systems exist in the model. See Select Filter Dialog in the Common Help and Create a filter for a grid system.

Reject

Removes the selected boundaries or faces.

Accept

Accepts the selected boundaries or faces.

Face

Displays the Face List Dialog, from which you can view information about the selected faces. You can use this dialog to add or remove faces.

Name

Displays the default name for the volume (as dictated by the active name rule), and allows you to type a different name, if needed.

Type

Specifies the type of volume. Selecting More opens the Select Volume Dialog from which you can select a type.

Space folder

Allows you to assign the new volumes to a folder in the space hierarchy. See Create a space folder.

Bound

Specifies if you want the volumes to behave as completely separate volumes.Select to modify the volumes as if they had been created individually. Clear to modify the resulting compartments as a group, in which the modify ribbon only allows you to make changes to the group as a whole.
