I'd like to display differnt views of my model and be able to quickly change visibility of options in all views.  It seems that it is required to go into each view and repeatedly modify the Design Options tab.  Anybody know a shortcut?

Thanks - Barney

Unless I misunderstand your question, each view keeps it's visibility settings unique to that view and design options are intended to have their own view for each specific option. For example, you have a front entry garage and a side entry garage which would need 2 floor plans, one set to display the front entry(primary), and the other for the side entry condition. You may also require 2 separate sets of elevations, sections, framing, etc to show the different conditions that are affected. Just a warning however, design options can be very cumbersome if the options are extensive. By that i mean affecting roofs, structure, pieces that can affect other pieces as they all need to be included in the set which can cause you to pull you hair out if not really thought out. Sometimes it's just easier to do it the old fashioned way and save as a new file.
