Changing Divisions: Interactions with the Project
Changes made to one part of a project frequently influence other parts of the project. The following information
describes the changes you can make to a division, and the effects of the changes on other parts of the building project:
■
Adding new divisions: When you add divisions to a project, you must fill them with constructs. You also need
views and plotting sheets to represent that division. For example, you might create a view named “South Wing”
and a plotting sheet “Plan—South Wing.”
For more information, see “
Creating a New General View Drawing
” on page 246.
■
Changing the division name: When you change the name of a division, the constructs assigned to it are
updated with the new name. For example, if you change the name of a division from “SW” to “South Wing,” the
constructs assigned to that division are updated to be assigned to “South Wing.”
■
Changing the division ID: Division IDs can be used in schedule tables. If you change the information here,
the information in your schedule table changes.
■
Deleting a division: When you delete a division, constructs assigned to that division are not deleted with it.
They are “orphaned” and have lost their division. You can choose among the following actions:
■
Delete the constructs because the division in which they were placed no longer exists.
■
Assign them to a different division within the project.
When you delete a division that has been used for a view, the view is not deleted from the project. If you update
the view, however, the deleted division is missing. You can choose among the following actions:
■
Delete the view because the division it was displaying no longer exists.
■
Create a new selection set for the view.
