When doing the preliminary design of compartments and ship zones, you can quickly create volumes by two or four points by using Place Volume by Two Points Command and Place Volume by Four Points Command to select points in the model.

When using the two points command, you select the bottom-front-left and top-right-back corners of the space. When using the four points command, you first select three points to define the base planar surface of the volume, and then you select a point to provide the necessary elevation to extrapolate the plane in three dimensions.

Alternatively, you can type the X-, Y-, and Z-coordinates of the points using PinPoint Command . Either way, these volumes are not linked or associative to any existing geometry. Only their location coordinates are relative to the defined origin of the model.

You can also use the Boolean operation buttons on the ribbon to add or subtract volumes from the overall volume.
