My class layer organisation is : layers: for where are the object (floor, stage, truss position...) Classes divided in 2 main "function" containment classes (fixture truss hoist stage...) (my classes) part classes (label, lens, body, chain... (VW's classes) In design layer i can work with saved view, for class/layer visibility I've saved view with only classes visibility used for example here is the saved view for 005 light in the preference I put the saved view visibility to don't save I can easily update saved view in the OP when new classes are create . A good fonction for saved view would be the ability to setup the class/layer visibility for class/layer start with ... such as the criteria edition in the report setting But for viewport it is not so easy if no mistake we can't link saved view to a viewport We cant apply saved view to a viewport I thought I found a solution with viewport style but there is no fourth column, and I have to setup the visibility of all classes/layers at a time . I would be able , as for saved view, to setup the visibility of some classes/layers, and don't modify the others... Or as mentioned above : the ability to setup the class/layer visibility for class/layer start with ... for now in my template file I've one (empty) sheet layer by family, and have to update it as soon as my work is at the viewport state , before duplicate it ... May I miss something, your help would be welcome ! Thanks !

Hello, While data tags are really great and we deploy them wherever applicable we see these issues present when using them: 1. tagging spaces in section viewports - data tag is wrongly not seeing - not picking space objects that are actually cutted by cut plane of section viewport but instead only those not cutted but beyond cut plane. We saw on few occasions that there is small prompt provided to help chose from multiple overlapping legible objects (same as we have with coincident objects) but this prompt is not always there when there are multiple same spaces (for example) seen beyond cut plane ... 2. tagging objects (e.g. door/window and probably others) that are using own 'cut plane and display' settings (accessed through edit section in-place) are not seen by data tags. See attached screenshots. 3. we see that currently viewport styles are not really friends with data tags or this is is not fully fine-tuned yet - when unstyled viewport is converted to styled existing data tags in annotation disconnect from source object and reset to default vaules (we see this at least with tags for door/window and space objects ). We wanted to start to take advantage of new viewport styles but it seems that working with unstyled/styled viewport styles can trigger resset. Generally we see often disconnection of data tags from source objects for unknown reason and it is really pain to reasocciate them back one by one when there is a lot of windows/doors/spaces etc. We see it mainly happening in horizontal section viewports or regular section viewports. We normally place data tags only in annotation space. @Nikolay Zhelyazkov Would you have some clue what might be the issue or is there something we should be aware of? Thanks a lot. Pavol

The new Viewport Styles will allow you to save custom viewport settings as styles, making them easily transferrable between viewports and project files.
