Adding 3D view saving function for model coordination

[echen4Q977]

Currently, model coordination space read the view published from models that stored in ACC folder. But setting up views in different models take time.  For example, If one wants to have first floor view or particular view for clash detection or field aggregate viewing purpose, every model in the coordination folder needs to set a view to make it happen. If we can create view (maybe by using section box) directly within ACC model coordination, it can drastically reduce the view setup time. I suggest to add a function to crop 3D view, and have "save view" function. So we can save as many views as we want directly within ACC platform.

Autodesk commonly refers to this as model conditioning. Not having correctly conditioned models does impact the overall performance of the design process.

Unfortunately, and as you've noted, all of the conditioning occurs on the model authoring side, with no means to correct any model issues before they are shared with the design team. By the time the models are shared, it's too late with incorrectly conditioned models being adopted by others.

And so, I agree with you that model conditioning tools should be placed in the host project and managed by the BIM Manager. These would cover numerous items such as view scope, detail level, worksets, category visibility, etc.
