Stencil for create rack diagram

Let me introduce my own stencil for create rack diagram.

RACK master-shape

To change the numbering direction of units, click "Reverse order of units". To change the height of the rack, right-click. You can choose the height of the proposed drop down menu: 57 U, 52 U, 47 U, 42 U. Or select "Properties" at the bottom of the context menu to enter the height of the rack manually. To change the width of the rack, also use "Change rack size". It works for all scales!!! Therefore, to enter the rack in the dimensions of the page, you need to change the settings of page File -> Page Setup -> Drawing scale -> Custom scale. You can change the height of the base (bottom) and roof (top).

Hardware master-shape

Double-clicking on a shape allows you to enter the text editing mode of the main shape. By selecting the shape labeled "Hostname" and pressing the F2 button on the keyboard, you can enter the text editing mode of this shape (leader). To change the display settings of the device, right-click.

1. In the "Status" drop-down list, you can change the formatting of the shape status display (New/Exist/Removed/Used in project). 2. In the "Set dimensions" drop-down list, you can select the height of the device from the drop down menu: 1 U, 2 U, 3 U, 4 U. Or select "Other dimensions..." at the bottom of the context menu, enter the rack height manually. To change the position of the device’s Hostname (text leader), also use "Other size", for racks width 600 mm, 800 mm and 900 mm. 3. In the "Inscription" drop-down list, you can select the location of the hostname label (at right or left).
