ArchiCAD .nwc Exporter Options
The export options appear after choosing OK from the File > Save As menu.
Setting the ArchiCAD exporter options:
1. Select the Export GUIDs check box if you want to attach a Globally Unique IDentifier as a property
to each item in the model. This is mainly useful for clash detection to track clashes.
2. Select the Enable library part instancing check box if you want to make instances of library parts
rather than creating new items. This is only possible when multiple library part elements within the
ArchiCAD model have exactly the same properties. Instancing these parts means a smaller .nwc file,
and shorter export times.
3. Library parts defined in GDL scripts may have a number of user-defined custom parameters. Select
the Export library part parameters check box if you want to save library part parameter values as
item properties in NavisWorks.
