Transfer certain Project standards

[spizarroXRVKR]

Im making a Catalogue model for multiple Projects. In this catalogue I have a lot of Walls created (lets say 100 as an example). In project A I need to transfer only 21 of them and I dont want to bring all, because its too much unusfull information for that project. In Project B I need 32 walls and its the same scenario as before. Is there a way to separate the walls so I can transfer only 21 of them to project A and 34 to project B? I though of using phases, but the transfer project standards tool doesnt let me choose faces, it brings all walls.

- In the source project, highlight the types you want to transfer in the Project Brower > CTRL+C

- In the target project, open a view (any view), CTRL+V

- Now inspect the target project Browser and the types are pasted there.

That's too surgical for TPS.  Since you have the Source Project Open, why don't you just copy/paste what you need from it - or transfer all and delete the ones you don't want en masse?  I know that both ways are a hunt and peck processes, but it's still faster than recreating the Types in new Projects - which I gather is the main objective here.

...the least amount of work would be to Transfer all and delete from Project Browser the one you don't need.  Them are my thoughts, for whatever they're worth.  😉

I was trying to avoid doing this, but I belive its gonna be the only way. Thanks!

Probably Copy/paste its the only solution

Why was you trying to avoid doing this?

Because If I make any changes on the source project and I copy/paste on the new projects. The walls keep the parameters from the new project. The only way to do it its through the TPS, whici will bring all walls, but I think thats what i will have to do anyway. (I hope I was clear, my english its not perfect, sory)

Gotcha. 

Then modify the workflow as follow:

- In the source project, highlight the types you want to transfer in the Project Brower > CTRL+C

- Create a blank 'bridge' project, open a view (any view), CTRL+V

- In the target project, transfer project standards from the 'bridge' project and overwrite existing

thats actually very clever. Probably the best option
