Hotlinking and renovation filters

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi,

I have a question regarding hot-linking and renovation filters.

I have two models:
- model A, this is my main model, where I model everything and which I use for publishing my floorplans, sections, etc
- model B, this is my render model, it contains model A hotlinked and adds a lot of heavy 3D geometry files for the very specific furniture and trees needed for the renders which I have to make

I chose this setup as doing everything in model A slowed down my workflow a lot. The file got heavy, took long to load, ...

I now run into the following issue: model A has 3 renovation filters which each contain a different option of the facade. When hotlinking model A in model B, model B did not receive these renovation filters, so I can not set which renovation filter of the hotlink I want to see in model B.

Does anybody know a way to make model B have the option to set the renovation filter of the hotlinked model A?

Best,
Vincent

Hello JDSV,

You have to open the "Filter option renovation" then export your renovation filter(s) and then import it(s) into your other project.
