Categories Panel (New Workspace)

Use this panel to select a building category and discipline. These selections help you filter project elements and product listings for your project within the new workspace.

When you choose a category and discipline, Specpoint automatically filters the available project elements, which assemblies, families, and product types, in the Elements panel. In the new workspace, this filtering applies to only Assemblies view/UniFormat. Your selections also refine the Product Listing window, ensuring you see only the most relevant product options.

For more information, see Elements Panel and Product Listings Window at the Project Level.

You can show or hide the Categories panel at any time. This flexibility allows you to either make your category and discipline selections or maximize the size of the element form. Specpoint retains your selections even when you exit and return to the new workspace or toggle the pane's visibility.
