Now I’ll switch to the New View and modify my building accordingly….

You will see that I’ve removed the door from the internal wall, add a new external door, removed the external wall on the right- but added some more external walls to make the building longer.

 

So now we have set up our “before “ and “after” model, we can look at each of the default Phase Filters and examine what they respectively show us.

 

Phase Filters in detail 

 

The Default Phase Filters are…..

  • None

  • Show All

  • Show Complete

  • Show Demo+New

  • Show New

  • Show Previous+Demo

  • Show Previous +New

  • Show Previous Phase

 

So now let’s take each one of the default Phase Filters in turn and see what effect it has on our model. Please Note: We will only be applying the various Phase Filters to the “New” View.

None

Setting the Phase Filter to none for the “New” view gives us the result shown above. Because there is literally no filter applied, we get to see everything in the model- no matter what phase it was created in or indeed if it is set to be demolished or not.

 

Show All

Image

The “Show All” Filter shows all model components regardless of “Phase Created” or “Phase Demolished” attributes. But unlike the “None” setting, this one (visually) differentiates the various status of each element according to it’s “Phase Created” and  “Phase Demolished” attributes. Elements created in a previous Phase are drawn with a lighter line tone. New elements are drawn with a darker line tone and shown shaded. And finally, demolished elements are drawn with a dashed line.
