Greetings to all,
I have created search sets on my NWF from Navisworks Manage 2017. My nwf file contains 5 nwc files, each representing one MEP system. Afterwhich, I exported the search sets and save it as a DAT file format. I have ensured that one of the exported search sets only select mechanical equipment from two nwc file (from 2 MEP systems) instead of all the nwc files which has appended to it.
Next, I removed one of my nwc file, lets called it AC building.nwc and append it with the newly updated nwc file with the same file name. Then, i removed all the search sets in the updated NWF file. I import the DAT search set next. However, when i clicked on the search set which I have saved earlier on, I realised that instead of selecting mechanical equipment from the two nwc files, it now select mechanical equipment from all the nwc files in my current nwf file. I do not want to select all the mechanical equipment and would only want to retain the previous search sets that only selected mechanical equipment from the two nwf.
Please help or advise. Thank you.
Best regards,
Wilson Ng
