Filter Pesky Levels

Need another way to manage the Levels of linked files? Sure we can assign them to specific worksets and have matching worksets in our model. Sure we can edit the V/G settings of the link in views (and view templates). Here's another, use a Filter and the criteria "Structural" that is available for levels.

When you examine the properties of levels you should find the parameter Structural. If the engineer uses that for their levels and you don't, then this concept works.


Now build a Filter that hunts for levels with the Structural parameter.


This is before the filter is applied.


This is after the filter is applied.


They can do the reverse by reversing the logic of the filter, Structural = no.

Happy Filtering!
