MarkMc Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 This really doesn't need to get all that complicated. At least I see no value in blocks or symbols in the long run. Does anyone do that for a building? how's that work if the walls are possibly being moved? Start with existing plan, save as and continue- as written earlier. No need to force open a second instance of Chief. Open layout, click to open plan, tear off tab, minimize or move to another monitor, repeat... Presto 4 open instances with 4 different layouts and as many perspectives/elevations as you want on each. KISS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, separate file for each option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I do as well unless its something super simple in which case I will occasionally just place items on different layers. This approach is really only useful about 5% of the time though.
