Items in Previously Found Pair of Composite Objects Rule missing from Navisworks 2022

[jezhopo]

Hi all,

I am trying to run a simple clash test which involves setting up rules to ignore (or not report) multiple clashes within the same object, rather just a single clash. I am not able to find the rule in Navisworks 2021 or 2022 "Items in Previously Found Pair of Composite Objects" as documented here: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/navisworks-products/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/20...

Does anyone know where I may be able this rule?

Thank you in advance.

You need to use a Rule Template and make the new rule. You would probably want to use one of the Specified Properties rule templates to start with. Then fill in the blue text in the rule description for what you want the rule to apply to.

I'll warn you ahead of time these can be very confusing (or at least i find them confusing).

Hi @hmunsell & @jezhopo , did you get the "Items in Previously Found Pair of Composite Objects Rule" to work?

I have a test set up, in which I want to clash a .dwf containing 4 Assemblies from Advance steel, against 2 blocks made in autocad.

But I do not succeed to bring down the number of clashes, all the elements in the spaceframe are being presented.

Do you have an example of a secific rule description which actually works, so I can simulate it, and start iterate from this postion?

Or do you have a clue on the last value?

Kind regards,

Willem
