Similar as in the Grid manager we need the option for the floor manager to "Rotate by points" so that a building can be positioned and rotated properly.

In today's BIM world the "I" of information becomes more and more important. This information is driven mostly by the properties attached to an element, more than by it's geometry. OBD already has a lot of built-in properties, also when it comes t...

It would be good to integrate OVC into OBD. Very few will be able to justify paying for the PS license just to get OVC inspite of its benefits. Link to previous discussion. OVC would also be very useful enabling tool for updating OBD's Place Objec...

Any Constraints applied to the Mstn elements seem to be stripped out when the Assembly is placed. Apparently, this is a 'voluntary' decision by the Mstn team. Item Types seem to make it through OK which is good. It would be good to bypass this 'vo...

The current global 'all or nothing' updates are only useful 5% of the time. For the bulk of the updates a step by step update is required. No engineering team is going to be happy relying on the vendor's algo without the assurance of visual inspec...

Penetrations are quite complicated and not easily defined by a few rules. The current selection of rules I think will be quickly overwhelmed. As such, I can see most people decoupling the Penetration objects from the PM as soon as possible, then e...

TF_UNIFY_CELL_CHILDREN is a great setting. Apparently can slow things down so something to combine with CVEs? Currently works for these conditions: Wall to Wall. OK Wall to Cell Wall. OK Cell Wall to Cell Wall. OK Cell Wall to Wall-in-Ref. OK Wall...

It would be good to enhance the Add Instance Data tool so that it can tunnel into cells. Link to previous discussion See also ADO PBI 901466: DataGroups: Modify Instance Data Enhancements Another link

It is recognised that components and assemblies need to be replaced intelligently. This is supported at platform level by the Replace Cell tool. Assemblies provide a way to for users to insert a lot of stuff. They will eventually need to manage th...

Apparently, the PM can do selective updates by allowing the user to select the cutting (or cut ?) element. The PM records the associated elements ElementIDs, presumably. Any callbacks triggered by manipulation by Mstn/OBD tools are recorded by the...
