    • RE: Update all Pages all Scenes

      In my experience LO will update the other pages only if you got an object updated which is shared between all pages (there is an "appear on each page" (or something like this) tick in the LO layer menu). In theory one could setup a dummy layer which would trigger all page update πŸ˜‰ in theory πŸ˜‰

      In my view current LO behavior with updating page by page is ok because you don't want your machine to crash on a heavy model of a city precinct updating 10+ pages of elevations with shadows etc. For smaller models its ok though.

    • RE: Select a Face and any Islands

      Assign material 1 to all wall surfaces. Assign mat 2 to all window surfaces. Right click in material browser and get total surface area mat 1 is assigned to. Same with mat 2. Add, subtract as required to get the info you are after.

    • RE: How Do I Minimise Clipping

      Just thought I'd mention another thing which can affect clipping. Cameras πŸ˜‰
      I had an issue the other day when I've set up scenes with saved views and created cameras from them to copy across to another file. Straight after that my clipping planes went berserk. I've checked my cad imports, turned on all layers and components, deleted all unnecessary stuff for the sake of making clipping go but no avail. In the end i've found 2 layers linked to cameras which were called something like camera_fov. These represented the field of view of my cameras and for some reason they were about 10 times larger than my whole model making my model geometry's bounding box 10 times bigger and producing clipping issue as a result. As soon as i've got rid of cameras clipping was history πŸ˜‰

    • Transfer Scenes from FIle to File

      Hi everyone. Is it possible to transfer scenes from file to file? Is there any plugin which can achieve that? I know I can create camera, copy it over to another scene and recreate the original scene there. Just would like to have a quicker way to get this done. Thanks πŸ˜„

    • RE: Make component BUG??

      As we know Glue+Cut Opening Option in the Component settings effectively hides the face of the underlying object, replacing it with the Component. Is there any plugin/trick which would let one hide the linework within the opening as well?

    • RE: Trouble with layer visibility.

      Just a thought. Have you tried adjusting the layer order in the Layout. In SU7 at least sometimes I had text layers behind main SU viewport and they were invisible as a result.
