Lets say I have 10 views of a building.
I have a design option set with 8 options.
I want to produce a collated PDF that shows the same vantage point cycling through each option (this has produced the greatest design prompt sessions with our client and principal).
This means I have 80 images to pump out.
Now consider I have another design option set with 2 options which influence the other 8.
Thats 160 images now.
Sounds a bit absurd I know but what would be the best way to batch render a matrix of options? I think it could lend itself to interesting capacity for decision-making.
The thing is, you can only effectively use the dropdown to showcase all of the expressions of a single design option set. If you want to cycle through multiple sets you have to use a view template and assign Design Option overrides to the views planned to be exported, which feels beyond the limits of Enscape…but if I can manually effect the 2 option set and have Enscape cycle through the 8 options that is only two manual moves rather than 16. Does the API allow for switching the active option?
If Enscape names the exported images with a suffix according to their design option, then that will probably be enough for me to batch compile them into a PDF booklet.
