Phasing Control with Room color fill

[sfraney]

Hi,

I'm working on a small project that is broken out into 2 phases. In phase 1, i've added rooms and room tags and have added a color fill legend, no problem, looks good. Then, I went to phase 2 and added some more rooms, and once again, I added another room fill legend. At this point, while viewing the phase 2 view, i do not see any color fill for phase 1. And that's the way it should be.

BUT, I have someone in my office who wants to see a single "complete" view that shows both phase 1 and phase 2 showing BOTH phases color filled.

What is the proper way to do this? I could go back to phase 1, select the room tags and copy them into phase 2, this will then show the "complete" color fill plan. However , this doesn't seem like the best way to do this. I would think that a phase graphic override function under the "settings/Phases" might be able to control this better.

Any ideas?

I'm running into the same question as sfraney asked last November. Is there an easier way to get the rooms from different phases to show up all together?

Can't you set a phase filter to show Existing (phase 1) and New (phase 2)? Apply this to a view set to Phase 2 and you should be able to see both Phase 2 objects (New) and Phase 1 objects (Existing).

You could also overlay both plan views on a sheet to get a composite view of both phases.
