Schedules and 3D view

Karol Argasinski

Dear all,

I have a question regarding schedules. Some of the types of doors are not possible to view in 3D (I use that often for edition purposes). It's not only one type, several of them are not 'clickable'. This is teamwork project, so everything is reserved.

All the best,
Karol

When you select an item in the schedule, and it's locked or hidden etc, then a panel will appear on the left at the bottom for information about the selected item (why it's not editable).

Dear James,
Okay, some of my elements are locked, but how can I unlock them if I can't see which doors are problematic in a 3D window?

Kind regards,
Karol

Open a 3D view.
Turn all the layers on that have doors in them.
Then issue the 'Unlock All' command in the Edit menu or with the tool bar button if you have one.
This is assuming you have teamwork permission to unlock them (I don't use teamwork so not exactly sure what you have to do there).

Hi Karol.
If the element is visible in the model, but locked, then the show on floor plan/3d buttons will still be active. Try going to floor plan, turning on all layers, going back to the Schedule (use the project map to navigate for this rather than views which store the layer combination) then show in floor plan that Wall that is locked. You can zoom to it, and it'll select (with light grey nodes).

(EDIT: Or as Barry said )

Hi Karol

Unlock all your layer
Or
Unlock all (Edition/Lock/unlock all)
Or
Add the unique ID to see which élément is locked

Thank you all for support, Unlocking all layers worked like a charm!
