Viewpoints in Model Coordination

Viewpoints in Model Coordination let you save and share specific model perspectives, including filters and spatial settings. This helps your team quickly focus on what matters most. By capturing the exact view, filters, and hidden elements, viewpoints streamline collaboration and review, making it easier to coordinate across disciplines and roles.

For example, an architect might want to create a viewpoint that highlights an area of clashes using specific filters and by hiding model objects, and share it with the engineering team for review.

In summary, viewpoints enable you to:

• Quickly navigate models and return to important areas.
• Share focused data sets for efficient review and issue resolution.
• Reduce errors by ensuring everyone sees the same filtered model context.
