Issue with Design Options

I have created a model of an existing building, that we are looking at renovating.

I made a "duplicate with detailing" from the original floor plan, to create design options from.

I did this in hopes of keeping the original floor plan to use as an "as is" floor plan.

 

In my Option set, I have Options 1, 2, and 3, that I intended to use as renovation options, only.

But, when I started making changes in the Option 1 plan, it carried those changes over to the original floor plan.

 

I have made sure that my options are changed in the VG settings, to correspond to the options in the option set.

 

What am I doing wrong?

You need to select which option you are working in on the bottom of your screen.

I have done that and made sure it was correct for each option, but it still changed the original floor plan that I copied the option floor plans from.

Create a dedicated view for each design option and go to VG > Design Options to set the correct design option for each view.  When you edit a design option, visually you will see the editing in any open views, but when you are done editing, only the view of that design option is changed.

Its not something you set for each view and forget about. Whatever is selected here is the option you are actively placing objects in. The option in the V/G settings is just which option is visible in a given view.

Sounds like they did that already. The problem is they aren't changing the active design option.

I have made sure that these are set to the correct option, before making changes, but it still changed my original floor plan, that I copied the option plans from.

Are you considering that your original plan has to be one of the options? Ideally the primary one?

To have 3 renovation design option you will need 3 existing buildings, one for each design option.

My intention was that the original floor plan was NOT one of the options, since I was trying to keep it for the "as-built" of the building, for demo purposes. That's why I made several copies, to use as options, separate from that.

 

But apparently, I don't know how to keep the "original" floor plan separate from the design options, if I even can.

 

That's what I'm trying to figure out.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean.

You cannot modify the existing building just for one design option.  You need copy the existing building to all three design options and edit them independently.  You can keep one copy of the existing building in the 4th design option to keep it as is.

I think you're just going to have to post the model. We're going to keep swimming in circles trying to guess what you're not getting set correctly.

So, if I wanted to keep the original model, to create a demo plan from, would it still be possible to do that, if it's part of the design options?

Not sure why you think you can have one demo plan for all three design options, unless your intent is to demolish everything. 

 

You can have the original existing unmodified, for as-built plans (though I am not sure if it is necessary either).  You would have three different demo plans for 3 different design options.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

One more quick question, In this scenario, I would not make any of the sets "primary".

Is that correct?
