CADDFrom3D Object

The "CADDFrom3D" object generates 2D drawings from a 3D model. This is particularly useful for objects located on the route because all changes made to these objects are reflected in the 2D drawings. Additionally, the 2D drawings can be customized by adjusting the rotation properties of the object. Producing 2D drawings with the "CADDFrom3D" object is important because it is the only way to accurately display changes in objects on the route. While other CAD methods may be appropriate for flat building projects or sectional views, using the "CADDFrom3D" object is necessary to accurately represent changes on the route.
