I have 5 different kitchen plans for a 20-unit floor plans in a townhouse residential project. I want to set the 5 kitchen plans as standard modules so that I can place them into the floor plans.
1. Where do I do these modules - in the view map or in worksheets? I have tried working in the worksheets but I can't see my 3D of the kitchen elements/objects.
2. Are worksheets associated with storeys?

I would do a 'workshop' story in my model, maybe even several for each kitchen setup. You can then publish those stories as module file from within the same model. Saves you opening the module file for editing.

Either put it waaaaaaaay above your model or (perhaps better), waaaaay below it.

Worksheets are for 2D information only.
