Missing model view option

[Yvonne]

Hello, 

Not sure why model view options go missing - is this a bug? 

This has happened to quite a few saved views and I haven't changed any settings within the model view options.

So you are saying when you go into the Model View settings, you have a MVO scheme called "02 Construction" ?

yep that's right. This is what it looks like:

Have you been merging files, hot-linking files or working in team work?

The MVO schemes apparently now are referenced by a hidden ID number and not the name now.

So something has change the ID number of the MVO scheme - but I am not sure what that is.

Maybe you imported Layouts through Organizer from another project ?

I do have hotlinks in the file and it is a teamwork file... maybe that's why. What is this mysterious ID number? 

[Yvonne]

I haven't imported any layouts

MVO schemes used to be recognised by the name a few versions ago.

If you changed the name in any way all the MVOs in your views would become 'Missing'.

Now they are recognised by a hidden ID that we can not see.

So if you rename an MVO scheme, the views will not care and will show the new name.

I think it changed in version 23.

I asked about teamwork (Bimcloud) because others seem to be having similar issues.

Here is one such post.

I am not aware of a fix other than re-setting the MVO in the view settings.

But it may go missing again.
