ModelIT is the model building module of the <Virtual Environment>. ModelIT allows you to create the 3D models required by other module within the <Virtual Environment>. ModelIT is designed to enable appropriate levels of complexity to be incorporated within a model across the entire design spectrum.
At the sketch design or feasibility stage, basic models may be generated from scratch using a variety of simple modelling tools, in order to conduct preliminary performance appraisals or comparative studies.
Similarly, at the other end of the design process, fully worked DXF files may be attached to ModelIT and using the tools provided, three-dimensional building spaces may be generated rapidly by tracing over the DXF outlines. Moreover, in the case of the optional Construct/DXF module, a complete model including doors and windows may be generated from a DXF file entirely automatically.

This guide introduces the terminology used to describe ModelIT and includes a description of all the ModelIT features i.e. toolbars, pull-down menu items and pop-up windows.
