This section lets you view and edit the properties of the selected bays.

Parameters of the whole bay (Selected bays)

These are parameters for the entire selected bay.

Overall width (Selected bays)

The physical width of the selected bays in the current measurement unit.

Changing this value resizes the whole bays in width. Note that the thickness of components is maintained, thereby letting you effectively create width variations of same bay.

Note: If multiple selected bays have different widths, no value is displayed, but you can still assign a common value by typing it in the textbox.

Tips:

Overall height (Selected bays)

The physical height of the selected bays in the current measurement unit.

Changing this value resizes the whole bays in height. Note that the thickness of components is maintained, thereby letting you effectively create height variations of same bays.

Note: If multiple selected bays have different heights, no value is displayed, but you can still assign a common value by typing it in the textbox.

Tips:

Overall depth (Selected bays)

The physical depth of the selected bays in the current measurement unit.

Changing this value resizes the whole bays in depth. Note that the thickness of components is maintained, thereby letting you effectively create depth variations of same bay.

Note: If multiple selected bays have different depths, no value is displayed, but you can still assign a common value by typing it in the textbox.

Tips:

Position Y (Selected bays)

The position of the selected bays on the Y axis in the current measurement unit.

Example of a bay position (placed at 0, 0, -100)

 

Note: The tripod with colored axes is also shown in the visualization area, indicating the space origin point (0, 0, 0) and the direction of each axis.

Note: The position is calculated from the lower back edge of the bay at the mid-point of its width.

Tip: The position can also be defined with the mouse. Consult Move (Edit bays).

Position Z (Selected bays)

The position of the selected bays on the Y axis in the current measurement unit.

Position X (Selected bays)

The position of the selected bays on the Y axis in the current measurement unit.

Tip: The position can also be defined with the mouse. Consult Move (Edit bays).

Orientation

The angle of the bays in degrees around the vertical axis (Z). A value of 0 is the default value.

Note: when you change the orientation value of multiple bays, they are rotated around their respective axis and maintain their original positions.

Tip: if you rather want to reorient several bays as a whole block with a common rotation axis, use Rotate bays instead.

Inclination (Selected bays)

The angle of the bays in degrees around the horizontal axis (Y).

Flow direction

Indicates which way people are most likely to travel in the aisle where the selected bays are located.

Note: Consult View flow direction to learn how to indicate direction follow with arrows on the screen.


Bay name

Descriptive name of the selected bay.

The name can then be displayed Show label on the bay in Schematic view, as well as in Project item list and in Reports. This is useful to identify each shelving unit in your planograms.

Instructions:

  1. Click on Browse.
  2. Select the desired image file on your PC.
  3. Click on Open.
  4. Wait for the image to upload.

Notes:

Locked bay components

Toggles the possibility to modify the selected bays.

This is useful to prevent accidental modification of shelving.

Note: The chosen value is saved with the project for each bay.

Locked accessories

Toggles locking the accessories on the selected bays.

This is useful to prevent accidental changes of the accessories placed on the bay. Let’s suppose you have created a bay with several accessories such as bay header, panel and Shelf strip. Locking accessories will allow you to add and move products on the shelves without risking displacing the accessories at the same time.

Note: The chosen value is saved with the project for each bay.
