The Item 1 and Item 2 panes show the Quick Properties relating to each
item in the clash, and also the path through the standard Selection Tree
from the root to the geometry of the item.
Clicking on a clash highlights the two objects involved in the clash in the
Scene View. By default, the center of the clash is the center of the view,
which is zoomed in so that the parts of objects involved in clash fill the view.
You can use the options in the Display and the View in Context areas to
control how the clash results are shown.
When your clash results contain multiple clashes which are associated with
a single design issue, consider manually grouping them together. Organizing
clashes into folders can simplify keeping track of design issues. When clashes
are grouped together they are listed as a single clash in summaries and reports.
The distance shown for a clash group is that of the largest 'open' clash with
the group.
NOTE When you select a clash group containing both 'open' (New, Active,
Reviewed) and 'closed' (Approved, Resolved) clashes, the open clashes will be
highlighted in the Item 1 and Item 2 panes rather than the closed clashes,
regardless of the actual size of the clashes.
Finally, selecting an item on the Item 1 or Item 2 pane, and then clicking
on the SwitchBack button sends the current view and currently selected
object back to the originating CAD package. This makes it very simple to show
clashes in Autodesk Navisworks, take them back to the CAD package, alter
the design, and then reload them in Autodesk Navisworks for a very fast design
review turnaround.
Manage Clash Results
You can manage clash results individually. You can also create and manage
clash groups. This can be useful where you have multiple clashes involving a
particular item, or where a certain area contains multiple clashes that can be
considered as a single issue. Created groups are represented in the Results
tab as folders.
You can also assign clashes and clash groups to an individual or trade, so that
you can specify who is responsible for resolving a clash.
To rename an ungrouped clash
1 On the Results tab, right-click the clash in the Results tab, and click
Rename.
