Workflow Materials and Construction SketchUp and Open Studio

edit

You can set the construction set to the building, and then you don’t have to assign individual surface constructions. If you made a construction set but didn’t assign it to the building, a story, space type, or space, then you will still need to individually assign constructions to surfaces. Regarding what you see with the inspector in the SketchUp plugin, you may not see inherited instructions in the inspector field. In the OpenStudio Application inherited constructions show up as green and non-editable. One last note, in the render by construction in mode in the SketchUp Plugin, there are two stages to the button. When you first go to that render mode it renders both hard assigned and inherited constructions. When you click it a second time when that is already your active render model it only renders hard assigned constructions (I may have those two states of render by construction backwards).
