How to create one assembly/separate assemblies for identical frames?

If you have two or more identical frames that share identical geometry and framing layout, see the instructions below.

Create one assembly for multiple identical frames

1. Modify Framing Configurations

1. Go to Framing Configurations > Modify Settings.

2. Check the box Create Same Assembly for Same Geometry:

Note: the box is checked by default.

2. Further steps

1. Frame Walls/Floors/Roofs

2. Number Walls/Floor/Roofs

3. Number Elements

Walls/Floors/Roofs still keep their unique numbering values in the Mark instance parameter.

For example, W-46 Assembly represents walls W-46, W-47, etc and their numbering values don't change.
