Sometimes when you are working it is necessary to send parts of a project to someone – whether that is a customer, a consultant or ourselves for support. Rather than send an entire file (.pln) it is often easier to send a module file (.mod).
Module files do not carry all the attributes and data that are stored in a full project so you will often see modules of small areas that are less than 1Mb in size.
To create a Module, all you need to do is select the appropriate components (walls, slabs, objects etc) and then go to File> External content> Save Selection as Module…
As with all file transfers, it is always worth checking the content prior to sending.
