Configuration of views

Last modified by Linus Karlsson on 2025/01/30 09:44

Complicated BIM project can include a lot of instances that can disturb the view. Therefore, the user has a number of abilities to configure project views, create new ones, filter out instances and adjust cut planes. Most default abilities are provided in the View Control Bar, where the user can quickly switch preview of the window, and isolate or hide elements.

Any view can be configured via “Visibility / Graphics” (shortcut “VV”). Here, we have the possibility to configure the view, selecting what components should be visible and adjust their presentation. There is also a possibility to add filters that would select out elements by the parameters set.

Each view also includes its properties available on the Properties window.
