I think there is a little bug with the above command.
When I have a model I use the icon "Floor Plan View". Then I try the icon "Create Building View & Drawing". This works nicely except when I tick the option Open Drawing: the sheet is opened and is OK but when I go back to my model the clip volume is no longer applied.
Can you reproduce this?
Thanks for looking into this,
Luc Dierick
If you want to see the clip volume, go to the Save View dialog and click on the Show column for the Saved View in question. That will display the section clip (the white rectangle), and clicking on it will display the clip volume. By default, the creating of a Building View will turn off the display of the section clip / volume itself in the main model, mainly so that it doesn't (re)display in the resulting Building View.
Or at least I think this is what you mean...?
Steve,
I know this. But my problem is as in attached file: in the model I have no more hatchings etc after the command "Create Building View & Drawing" when "Open drawing" is ticked. When "Open drawing" is not ticked you keep the hatchings etc in the model. Is that clearer?
Luc
Hi, Luc,
This is probably because the Create Building View and Drawing comand does not perform a "Save Settings" before it executes the Open Drawing option. So, when you return to the 3D model it opens to the last state at which a Save Setting was initiated.
I hope that helps.

Ahhh.... I totally missed that it's the actual Saved View graphics that's missing from the 3D model...
Luc, just for my own curiosity... Are you wanting to create a Building View and then also have it attached to a specific view window in the 3D model, sort of like an automatic Multi-Model view?
