Truss Labels

Roof and attic trusses are labeled in floor plan view in the format TR-xx. The xx are numbers following the consecutive order in which each distinct truss configuration or type was created.

For example, the first truss type created is labeled TR-1; the second, TR-2; and so on. Truss labels also display in the Truss Detail and the Materials List. Floor and ceiling trusses are labeled FTR-xx.

A copied truss has the same label as the original if the conditions at the location of the copy are the same as the original. If conditions are different, the copied truss is built differently and displays a different label.

Truss labels are centered on the truss that they represent. If the truss is moved or deleted, the label is moved or deleted as well. Truss labels cannot be selected by themselves. Truss labels are selected when the truss is selected. Truss labels are located on their own layer, so their display can be controlled in the Layer Display Options dialog. See "Layer Display Options Dialog".
