This article lists all the additional views available in Solibri. Solibri has a number of additional views that are not by default included in any default layout, but which can be added to any layout. Note that all the functionalities in the views are not available in Solibri Site or Anywhere.
The additional views are:
The Checked Components view identifies the components assessed by a rule or ruleset, showing whether each component has passed or failed the checks.
This view has the following options:
-
Show All Checked: Shows all components checked by a rule
-
Show Failed: Shows the components the rule has passed
-
Show Passed: Shows the components the rule has failed
-
Show Accepted: Shows the components accepted by the user
-
Show Rejected: Only the components rejected by the user
-
Show Undefined: Shows the components that are undefined, i.e. haven't been defined by the user.
The Compartmentation view allows you to visualize, add, edit, and remove external walls and different compartments in the model.
Different kinds of compartments are displayed in a tree form that can be expanded for more details. Compartment types displayed in the tree are Building Envelope, Gross Area Compartments, Fire Compartments and Secure Compartments.
Compartment types are located in the root of the tree. Each compartment has a list of limiting walls and columns. The floor and the area of compartments are also shown. The areas of Gross Area compartments are measured along the outer side of the limiting components.
In the Filtering view, you can select components based on their types and properties. This view contains a filter table for setting the parameters. You can find more information on filtering in the Filtering Components article.
In the Hyperlink Manager view, you can add, edit and remove all hyperlinks related to the model. You can add hyperlinks to models, components, classifications, slides, rules, issues, and problems. Hyperlinks are saved with the current model.
Hyperlinks can be either absolute or relative. An absolute hyperlink expects that the file is always located in the defined path. If you move the model to another computer, Solibri tries to find the file in the defined path. A relative hyperlink is relative to the current model file location. With relative links, you can create file packages and move the file package to the other location.
To add a hyperlink:
-
Click the item to which you wish to add the hyperlink (component, rule, issue etc.).
-
Click the New Hyperlink button. A dialog box opens.
-
Type the file path in the field or click the folder icon to select a file location. Select the file location and click Open.
-
Give a descriptive name to the hyperlink.
-
Store the hyperlink path either as relative or absolute.
-
Click OK.
Tip
You can add a hyperlink in many other views from the view’s context menu. To access the context menu, right-click your mouse over the view.
Note
Hyperlink templates are programmable hyperlinks. To open a hyperlink template, click the folder icon in the Hyperlink Manager toolbar. A dialog box opens. Select the hyperlink templates you want to use and click Open.
Note
To edit a hyperlink, click the Edit Hyperlink icon.
The Parameters view shows the parameters of a specific rule or ruleset. Each rule has one or more parameters. The number and type of parameters can be different for each rule, and so the content of the view may also vary according to the selected rule.
Some rules create reports related to issues they are checking, and these reports are listed in the Reports view. A rule can create one or more reports, and each report is listed separately. The view contains a table of components handled in checking. The checking results are reported with numeric result values, and this data can be exported to Excel for further quality evaluation.
Tip
Hover your mouse over a column to get more detailed information on column values.
The Space Grouping view groups the spaces that are contained in larger spaces. In BIM, it's a common convention to model areas, such as apartments, as spaces which contain other spaces. The Space Grouping view uses the space geometry to calculate such groups and visualizes the grouping in a tree structure.
Space grouping is taken into account in several rules. For example, space groups can be ignored in intersection checking because intersections between space groups and other components are almost inevitable.
The Space Group tree table shows space groups in the model:
-
Type of the space or space group.
-
Grouping Type of the space or space group.
-
Area of the space or space group.
