Option to store a Clip Volume with Clash

Our 3D models are very large, so we always create a clip volume with a range around the area. Otherwise the clarity is very limited. It would therefore be very desirable and advantageous if you could save the clip volume together with the clash point, as it is possible in other BIM Tools.

    Thank you for this idea and to all 16 endorsers.

    Today, clip volumes can be persisted via Saved Views — you can create a Saved View at a clash location with a clip volume applied, which serves as a workaround for this workflow.

    Storing clip state directly with clash results is not currently planned, but we understand the value for large models. We'll keep this idea under consideration.
