Model Editing with cadwork


The process for downloading and installing the cadwork app is described in the following article: Cadwork app.


Benefits of the cadwork app

With the cadwork app, project content such as model tasks from buildagil can be viewed, and associated model views can be opened directly in cadwork. The cadwork app provides access to buildagil directly within cadwork. This allows model adjustments to be made efficiently, since there is no need to search manually for the relevant sections. Once the app is installed, it can be opened via the “plug-in bar” in cadwork, and changes can be made to buildagil.

Editing Models and Model Tasks

Models and CAD files saved on buildagil can be opened directly in cadwork from the Documents folder. For more information, see the following article: Opening Documents in Local Programs. You can then open the cadwork app to access all project content on buildagil. For more information on navigation in the cadwork app, see the following article: Navigation Apps. The "Project" tab allows you to open and view all model tasks for the project in a list.



Model views from buildagil can be opened directly in cadwork. The corresponding model view is automatically displayed in cadwork.



The model from buildagil can be displayed right next to the model in cadwork. This also allows you to access all model tasks and associated model views.



With the OneDrive Synchronization, IFC and PDF files can be exported and saved directly to buildagil.
