country Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I didn’t use Saved Plan Views in X11 but can go back and save them to the Plan file. I will then do as you say Mick, and import them, to add to the X12 list in my new Plan template. I certainly cannot see any downside to this, only benefits. Every new update from Chief has improved my work flow of Construction Documents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coupled with "Multiple Referenced Plans" this is the absolutely best way of creating ConDocs. ditto Joe... and multiple ref plans...... very powerful...... if it doesn’t work for a user then they don’t get it. we should do a work shop soon to share ideas on 12 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DRAWZILLA Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I love them to much, not using them is out of the question 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
country Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 Scott. Let me know if a workshop is set up. I am definitely in. I have been slack in learning new features and have to catch up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
country Posted March 22, 2020 Share Posted March 22, 2020 I just tried some saved Plan Views in X11. There is no Export function for them, just Layer and Anno Sets. I guess I'll have to do an entire drawing in X12 so it is easy to develop a set of them..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Eric mentioned on the Import menu in X12 look for Import Saved plan views ( 3rd Section) and when the DBX pops up, point it to the X11 Plan file with the Saved plan views, then there will be another DBX popup , >select All and Replace ( or create new) >Ok and then they should all be in the drop down for SPV or the Project Browser.

payettedesigns Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 I love the saved Plan Views and use them all the time. It was a learning curve at first but it was a good upgrade in my humble opinion. David 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
country Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 The imports worked great. I am almost ready with my new templates in X12. Decided to start fresh because my learning curve has required so many changes to the old templates that it was just easier to import what worked well and do the new additions instead of revising everything as I went along.... Once again, thanks everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once again, thanks everyone. Remember that X-12 has a fantastic new tool "Save As Template" You can use it to save your improvements to layout and plan as you go and replace the default template with your new and improved one. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
