Slab Rebar 2.0 — Settings and Preview — Settings reference
Walkthrough and screenshots · Coverage CSV
Version substitution: the installed ribbon exposes Slab Rebar 2.0, not the classic SlabRebarCmd in the usage ranking. This is a settings/preview guide. Create Rebar fails because the installed RebarApiShim.CreateFromCurves method is missing. No generated slab reinforcement is verified. The practice RVT is an input model with a 300 mm native floor at Level 1 and inherited fixture columns. Multi-panel merging and openings are not runtime verified.
Control labels match the recorded installation. Settings below describe UI/source behavior; they are not a claim that every combination generated successfully. Refer to the walkthrough for the exact exercised values and evidence.
