Export Area Based Site Improvements

  • 1.  Export Area Based Site Improvements

    Posted 12-12-2022 14:05
    Can anyone tell me which export option is used to export the area based site improvements so that they can be imported into another file?  A colleague and I are both working on a rather large takeoff file and have compartmentalized different areas in two vce files to save time.  Our plan is to combine into one vce file at the end but we can't figure out how to export one persons area site improvements into the other.    Both of our TBC files are using the same template and version of TBC.  

    If anyone can please let me know I would appreciate it.

    MSI Manager.
    or
    VCL Export

    If you just want to share the Site Improvement Library you created, Save your MSI Library as MXL file and share it.

    Alternatively,
    Select the points that represent site improvements and Export them as VCL file.
    VCL will bring site improvements as "points" together and will populate MSI with the Improvements created in the other project.

    inside the MSi Manager.  you will go to File > New External Library.  after you see the External Library tab at the bottom of the list.  you can then go up to your existing material  and right click.  you will see on the pop up window an option to "copy to Library"  those materials will then be copied to that External Library and from there you can now Save External Library.
