Multiple views

You can display 2D or 3D drawings on the corresponding levels in Assets and in Spaces & Workspaces . To simplifiy navigation inside these models and provide the ability to compare models, it is possible to display these views in a separate window.

• The pop-out windows will only respond to actions performed in the parent TSI.
• To benefit most of this feature, we recommend using multiple monitors.

When using this feature, it is therefore possible to display three views simultaneously:

• Data view

• CAD Integrator

• BIM Viewer

Limitations

• You cannot copy the URL of a pop-out window to another browser (tab or window).

• Viewers shown in the data panel will immediately display the appropriate BIM model or CAD drawing. In pop-outs, a BIM model or CAD drawing will not update until the user has selected an item in the element list.

• When closing, the pop-out will not transfer the exact status of the viewer. The user may have to repeat certain actions in the data panel viewer.

• Dialogs such as warnings will not be shown in the pop-out, but will be shown in the data panel.

• CAD Integrator pop-out

◦ Cannot save drawings to PDF.

◦ Cannot be used to rotate assets.

Synchronization

When displaying multiple pop-outs, the views that are displayed remain synchronized.

• Selecting a space in the elements list (data view) will highlight that space in the CAD Integrator and/or BIM viewer view.

• Selecting a space in the CAD Integrator view will highlight that space in the BIM viewer pop-out and select the space in the elements list (data view).

• Selecting a space in the BIM viewer pop-out will highlight the space in the CAD Integrator pop-out and select that space in the elements list (data view). If required, a new floor plan will be loaded in the CAD Integrator pop-out.

When switching to a different navigation level in the TSI shown in the workspace frame, the synchronization behavior is temporarily deactivated. In other words, the viewers shown in the pop-outs will not respond to selection changes in the elements list. Synchronization will reactivate once the user returns to the navigation level in which the pop-out windows were initially created.

Specifics

Assets can exist on multiple floors. Selecting an asset in the element list of the CAD Integrator view may result in the appearance of the Floor selection dialog and this is now expanded to cover all views available on the Assets step.
