Base Option Set

What is the Base Option Set?

A base option set is preset per Estate to correctly present linked Configurables to the end user and thereby create a starting point. With the base option set, we assign Functional options to an Estate on the basis of the previously set option list. For example, think of the right roof shape, a building number-specific front façade or an end façade when the house is a corner house.

BIM Publisher

The Basic Option Set is not available for BIM Publisher projects. Only for Home configurator and Planconfigurator projects can be used.

Setting up the Base Option Set

Setting the Base Option Set is done within the Plan-Editor. Click an Home, and open the Base Option Set menu by clicking in the top bar.

Open the Base Option Set

Within this screen, you have 2 possible actions:

  1. Toggling each option on or off.
  2. Hiding or disabling the visibility of an option for each (selected) Home.

Standard Options

In the tab, the idea is to check all the categories to turn on the Functional that match the selected Home.

Example: common options you can turn on in this process: Head Gable (Left), Head Gable (Right), Front Gable Bnr 1, Transverse gable. (These can also be certain material switches!)

Hiding or disabling option visibility

It's good to keep in mind that there's 2 places where you can hide or disable option visiblity.

  1. From within the `Option list*.
  2. Through using the Base Option Set-editor.

Hiding options through the option list

Hiding an option through the option list means that the invisibility of that option will be globally applied. This means that this option will be hidden on all Homes using that Configurable. These options will therefore never been shown within the Innobrix Viewer of a project or plan.

Different behavior of (global) visibility of options between Home Configurator and Plan Configurator

Options hidden from within the option list will be shown italicized in the Plan-Editor of the Home Configurator, but will not be shown at all within the Plan-Editor of the Plan-Configurator. So there is a distinction here.

Hiding options using the Base Option Set editor within a plan or project

Hiding an option within a project or plan via the Base Option Set-menu means that the effect is applied locally. That is, the option is hidden for only that selected Home.
