| Click on [[Parametric]] on the [[Future Design]] tab.
| Hover over the Parametric Design button and choose [[Design_types_(Parametric_Design)|Add road aligned]] or [[Design_types_(Parametric_Design)|Add spaced design]]. In the left panel a new Design is added.
| On the bottom left of the screen, select to add a [[Design_types_(Parametric_Design)|Add road aligned]] design from the dropdown menu.  
| Select the Design in the left panel and click on the [[Parameters_(Parametric_Design)#Functions|Functions tab]] in the right panel. Select the desired [[Function|functions]]. These will be type of [[Construction]]s placed by the design.
| On the [[left panel]] a new Design is added. Select this design.
| Adjust the parameters in the [[Parameters_(Parametric_Design)#Road|Road]] and [[Parameters_(Parametric_Design)#Plot|Plot]] tabs.
| On the bottom right panel, click on 'Draw Area' and select the area for the design.
| Click on the Draw Area button in the right bottom corner. In the Bottom panel, the option for Override buildings is automatically checked. If you would not like to remove existing Buildings to make place for the new design, uncheck this option. Then draw the area for the design in the [[3D world]] and choose 'apply selection'.  
| With the sliders on the 'Design' tab you can adjust the parameters of the design.
| Then adjust the parameters in the [[Parameters_(Parametric_Design)#Design|Design tab]].
| On the 'Plots' tab you can add or change the [[Functions|function types]] being used to fill the plots. These will appear also on the left side, under the design you just created.
| Click on Generate Design.
| To remove a function type, you can select the entry on the left side, and click on the 'Remove' button.
| Verify that the selections in the [[3D world]] and the information in the [[Chart_(Parametric_Design)|pie chart]] look like the desired result. If not, tweak the parameters (in the Design tab) further.
| You can also change function speciffic parameters on the right side, when you have the function type selected under the design on the left panel.
| Either apply the design to start a [[Test Run]], click on Save to Current to construct the Design in the [[Current Situation]] or save the design as a [[Measure]].  
| On the 'Roads' tab you can adjust road speciffic parameters.
| Verify that the result is correct. If not, revert the application by clicking on Revert last Design and tweak the configuration further (this step is not possible when having the design saved to Current).
| After setting up all the parameters, click on 'Generate' on the right panel, to draw the plan according to the set parameters.
| Verify that the selections in the [[3D world]] and the information in the [[Chart_(Parametric_Design)|pie chart]] look like the desired result. If not, tweak the parameters further.

How to create and use a Parametric design:
  1. Click on Parametric on the Future Design tab.
  2. On the bottom left of the screen, select to add a Add road aligned design from the dropdown menu.
  3. On the left panel a new Design is added. Select this design.
  4. On the bottom right panel, click on 'Draw Area' and select the area for the design.
  5. With the sliders on the 'Design' tab you can adjust the parameters of the design.
  6. On the 'Plots' tab you can add or change the function types being used to fill the plots. These will appear also on the left side, under the design you just created.
  7. To remove a function type, you can select the entry on the left side, and click on the 'Remove' button.
  8. You can also change function speciffic parameters on the right side, when you have the function type selected under the design on the left panel.
  9. On the 'Roads' tab you can adjust road speciffic parameters.
  10. After setting up all the parameters, click on 'Generate' on the right panel, to draw the plan according to the set parameters.
  11. Verify that the selections in the 3D world and the information in the pie chart look like the desired result. If not, tweak the parameters further.
  12. Either apply the design to start a Test Run, click on Save to Current to construct the Design in the Current Situation, or save the design as a Measure.
  13. Verify that the result is correct. If not, revert the application by clicking on 'Revert' and tweak the configuration further. Please note that this step is not possible when the design is saved to Current.

Notes

  • Save to current: a test run is not started. Instead it is applied to the Current Situation. This method is not easily reversed.
  • Tip: use the Polygon pick selection tool to draw the area for the design.
