Generate mass-based presets, then edit!
- Under the Mass-Based typology, the Podium - Low Detail and Wrap - Low Detail presets can be assigned deal specific parameters that can generate solves onto sites.
- First, locate the site and draw the site boundary.
- Activate the Preset Prompt and select a preset, either the Podium - Low Detail or Wrap - Low Detail preset.
- With the Multifamily layer selected in the Nav Tree, scroll down to the Property Panel. The shape type will be set to AutoMass.
- The Property Panel provides the ability to adjust parameters of the mass like depth, orthographic, divide courtyards, courtyard aspect ratio, and more.
- The depth of the mass adjusts the overall dimension from the front to back facade as indicated below.

- The orthographic toggle turned on will constrain the solve to be orthogonal or have 90-degree edges.
- The divide courtyards toggle turned on will allow the mass to create more courtyards. If it is toggled off, it will combine the courtyards into one.
- The courtyard aspect ratio will set a ratio for the depth to the height of the courtyard.
