ParticipantHi all
I have a model created in Delftship with which I have a couple of issues.
- The model was created from drawings. When I load the model into Deltship Pro the background image is somewhat distracting and superfluous – can the image be removed?
- I have re-positioned the stations to replicate the original drawings. The model as displayed does not reflect the new stations – what do I need to do?
As you may guess I am struggling with this. I am building a model tug in steel sheet. The hull panels have been laser cut to the Delftship model (exported as DXF). The fixture on which I am fabricating the hull I have made in wood to the original, rather poor drawings. As I have tried to assemble the hull it is apparent that there are differences between the Delftship model and my fixture…
I need to become more competent with the software to ensure accuracy and of course to actually enjoy the process…
Thanks in advance

KeymasterHi Paul,
First question is easy: Reference images can be hidden by clicking the “Background” button which can be found in the “Hull display” menu on the “Home” tab. This shows/hides all enabled reference images. In addition you can hide or show individual images by clicking on the lightbulb which is displayed on top of the image in the menu.
Secondly, if you have removed the old stations and added new ones in the “Intersection” window then the new positions should be used in the linesplan (and 3D views).

ParticipantThank you Marven
I got rid of the background exactly as you described.
The unwanted stations seem to be an intrinsic part of the model. When I click ‘Stations – Toggle station visibility on/off’ I do get my ‘new’ stations – but they are shown alongside the existing unwanted stations. I haven’t found a way to turn these off.
Ultimately I will want to export stations so I could try that and see if the unwanted stations are exported alongside the new ones. Or do you have any idea what might be going on?
Thanks again for your help
Paul

ParticipantHi all
After a bit of clicking around I discovered the ‘unwanted’ stations can be turned on/off by clicking ‘Control net’.
Regards
Paul
