One feature that would be of immense help to us in being able to utilize VW in a true BIM workflow is the automatic display of window & door IDs in elevation. Without this capability, we still have to add them by hand in the elevation viewports, and whenever a change is made to the window layout, ID numbering, or whatever, this then needs to be coordinated or updated manually -- a great place for errors to creep in.
Obviously VW knows the identity of the doors and windows it's rendering, so it would make all the sense in the world for it to be able to display the appropriate IDs in something other than plan view! It's a significant gap in the BIM process if you have to manually draw information that's already present in the database.
