TechTip of the Month Contest Winner of February 2005:

Link's tip on combining Layer combos and Display Options in ArchiCAD!

- "Display Options - Does anyone customize these? Does anyone have a good system down?"

- I have found that one of the best solutions is to create a separate display option to match each layer combination. Then when you are creating views, you simply need to match the layer combo name and the display option name to the view name and call it good. Simple and easy to maintain."

An interesting approach to using Display Options, Views and Layer Combinations that just does not need further explanation - create the views, the corresponding layer combinations and display options and match them to the specific views.

Hint: - This is only another method to using ArchiCAD - your practice might find a more suitable solution to this problem - if so, please share it with the ArchiCAD community on ArchiCAD-talk: http://archicad-talk.graphisoft.com/ - and you might even win an award from Graphisoft R&D!
