VWVSpass Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Is it possible to make multiple ‘design options’ in VW2020 ? Quote Link to comment
Pat Stanford Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Yes. Just put them in different Layers or different Classes and then turn on the ones you need to show either in different Viewports on or the Design Layer. Saved Views can make this easier on the Design Layers. Quote Link to comment
Popular Post Joe-SA Posted October 19, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted October 19, 2020 To make this a little more clear for newbies......use the concept of the 'container' class. For example, you can take a portion of your floor plan objects and put everything unique to Option 1 in a single Group. Place that Group in a class called Option 1. Do this while the class structure inside the Group is preserved to your original class structure. Turn off Option 1 class and the whole Group is turned off. Do the same for other design options. Groups are only one of many objects that function as containers where the container class can be different from the class of the objects inside. 8 Quote Link to comment
zoomer Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 That is a very good idea. Usually I just use new Layers for Versions and put all Version related parts in there temporarily, until a decision or selection was made. But that will get tedious in 3D when Versions apply to multiple Stories. In that case I had to add additional Version "Classes" to it, which means basically Duplicates of a few Classes times n*versions. Which is not super comfortable. With Joe's additional Group Containers, I can avoid that. 2 Quote Link to comment
