Importing Constructions from one project to another

Post by bootsam »

I'd like to import the constructions I made in one project (my compliance project) into another project. (Same building but for loads only). I get an error message stating invalid ID's. Is there a way to overcome this? I'd really rather not rebuild them.

UPDATE: you need a construction with the same ID in order to import it into the project. Easy when EXTW1, pain when its named EXTW21. I added 21 new constructions and then they pasted okay. I then deleted those others I did not require. My 2 windows were EXTW2 and EXTW21. Furtunately my walls etc were lower in ID number. This works okay for those with a similar issue. :ugeek:

Hi,

The Master Templates > Import Wizard will bring constructions in to the project. You don't need to worry about IDs existing or not... the wizard handles all that.

Regards,
David.
