Advance Concrete allows different representations for the bars. The default display of the bars is "Filled exact contour". If this option is activated, the exact diameter of the bar is represented.

If you plot the drawing with these settings, the bars will be created as in Figure 2.

To change the representation of the bars in the drawings, we activate the "Wireframe" option on the "Advance Project Preferences- Project preferences" toolbar.

Using this default, the axis of the bar is represented and the line thickness is "By default" (Figure 4).
