To Create a Transactions Step Using Copy/Paste

  1. In the Script Editor, copy an existing transaction step including the opening and closing brackets.
  2. Paste the transaction line, together with the opening bracket and the previous transaction’s closing bracket, and paste it between the nodes to be separated into two transaction steps.
  3. Click Apply.
    Note: In transactions with many nodes, subdividing the transaction in this way can create problems. OpenBuildings™ GenerativeComponents records node creation in the sequence it was performed, however in some situations, breaking up transactions can produce an error during playback. For this reason it is recommended that transaction steps are frequently recorded to keep the list of features within each step relatively small and more manageable, these transactions can later be consolidated into a single transaction. Once you click Apply, you cannot go back to the previous state.
