Worksets in non-central model

Worksets in non-central model

Enable creation of worksets without creation of collaboration (central file) model.

Worksets are very useful tool for organizing and filtering different type of elements, categories or systems on a building but it would be useful if we could use worksets on a file which shall not be central.

This would also be helpful with the setup of templates, so that worksets can be turned on/off in views before the project is started.

Why not use a workshared project?

@Nurlan-A.   I use workshared projects exclusively, so I understand what you're saying.   But for Archival and for Transmitting the project file for other's use, I prefer to send over a detached model, so they don't have the issues opening it of the "This Central Model has been moved..." message.  I'd like to be able to send a detached, workset-enabled, purged clean model.  That would be optimal.  That's also what I'd like to be able to receive from my engineers. 

 

The e-transmit tool works great, except if we are using worksets, we cannot detach the file.  If we are not using any worksets then that's not an issue.  

 

So it would just be nice to have that option.  Thank you.
