3D DWFs and Design Options

[Brandon_Pike]

I am trying to publish 3D DWFs for the web. I have a building with multiple design options, I would like to create a DWF for each design option. Hew does one specify which design option is published to 3D DWF?

Thanks!

Pull up a 3D View, make the Design Option that you want visible in view visibility settings, and export the 3D DWF.

see below from Revit Help:

"To see secondary options with the main model, create duplicate views that are dedicated to those options. These views are called dedicated views. A dedicated view typically displays a specified design option for each set.

You can dedicate all kinds of views (including schedules) to a specified design option. For example, you can create one beam schedule for the primary option and another beam schedule for a secondary option. Each schedule lists beams that are in the main model as well as beams that are in the specified design option.

To create a dedicated view

Open a view that you want to dedicate to a design option.
By default, the view displays the primary option with the main model.

In the Project Browser, right-click the view name, and do the following.
If you want the duplicate view to... then...
include model elements only, with no annotations or detailing, click Duplicate ViewDuplicate.
include model elements as well as annotations and details from the original view, click Duplicate ViewDuplicate with Detailing.

Revit Architecture creates a duplicate view.

Rename the duplicate view, using a name that indicates the design options displayed in the view.
For example, the following 3D view names indicate the design options that will be displayed in each view. (See Renaming Views.)

In the Project Browser, right-click the duplicate view name, and click Properties.
In the Instance Properties dialog for the view, for Visibility/Graphics Overrides, click Edit.
The Visibility dialog displays the Design Options tab. It lists each design option set, and, for each set, the design option that the view is currently displaying.

A value of Automatic indicates the following:

When no design option is being edited, the view displays the primary option.
When a design option is being edited, the view displays the active option.
For each design option set, select the design option to display in this view.
If you have created multiple design option sets, the view displays one option for each set.

Click OK.
The view displays the main model and a selected design option for each set.

Repeat Steps 2–4 for each combination of design options that you want to show in individual views.
For each dedicated view, you can now do the following:

Modify the view, for example, to add annotations and details for design options. See Annotating and Detailing.
Modify a design option. See Editing a Design Option.
Place the view on a sheet to share the design options with clients. "
