Good morning,
The way I understand it there are 3 ways to add existing details to a project. Apologies on the incoming wall of text.
1. Import - Click import on your detail manager got pick a bunch from other projects. Positive of simple, con of not copying the detail and renaming for the specific project as well cannot put into specific detail folders
2. Click and drag - Open the detail explorer, drag a drop the detail you want into your project detail folder. Positive of simple and it being copied and renamed for the project, con of being time intensive as you can only do one at a time
3. New - Open your project manager, change your detail folder to the specific detail folder (let's say planting). Go to detail manager, click new, and then select all the details you want from a project. Copies over. Pro of copying and renaming as well as able to drop in specific detail folders, con of being many clicks and room for mistakes
We elect to take the 3rd track as it's vital that we make copies of existing details, have them renamed for the new project, and be able to pick multiple at once. This option is the only way to achieve all of that.
- My question - One vital step to the 3rd option is to change your detail folder in the project manager of where you want the selected details to copy into. It's a way of telling Land FX where to copy them into. However whenever I change the set detail folder I get a pop up that says, "Would you like to Copy the existing details to the new location?". I always say no. After searching around Land FX documentation I cannot find any literature on this pop up.
Could you explain what this pop up is and what it does? I have a hard time interpreting what it means exactly.
Thanks,
Kevin
