Design Options - How do I revert to original model?

[rtaube]

This was my first project using design options and the seemed to work pretty good in showing different alternatives. However, we've selected our design and I'd like to delete the options that exist in the model. If I just select all the design options and click Remove, it deletes all the elements that were associated with the option, even though they are apart of the Main Model.

I can see how this makes a bit of sense, but how do I remove only the options, and keep the main model intact? (we will not be utilizing any of the changes in the design options)

When you started the Design Options, did you move some objects from the model into one of the Options (perhaps the one denoted as the "primary" option, but perhaps not)? If you are losing things when deleting the Option Set, then you must have moved something to one of the Options.

What you need to do is identify one of the Options that you want to keep (the one with the original layout items) and make that the Primary Option. Then in the Design Options dialog, under Option Set on the right side, click Accept Primary. This deletes the Option Set, but keeps the objects in the Primary Option, moving them to the Main Model.
