Enscape Portal - vote for 2D Placeholder Merged

There is a way that is relatively straightforward for the Enscape team to make a nice 2D representation of their assets for plan, elevation, and section that can be controlled via a parameter visibility toggle. This would be a time consuming task given the size of the Asset library but it would be incredibly valuble to the Enscape users that are using the software for producing Permit and Construction document sets and not just Arch. Viz. only. We take a good chunk of time getting the asset placement just right and if some of those assets are standard items you would see in plan, i.e. sofas, beds, chairs, etc. it would be great if they were presentation ready so they could be used to depict important plan information. While a tedious undertaking for the Enscape team, it would further embed their software into the workflow of Architects and Interior Designers, creating a 2 for 1, where designers can populate their spaces with great assets to produce stunning renderings while at the same time developing their floor plans / furniture plans.


Another approach could also be to find a way to hide the triangulation lines of the Enscape Assets and only show silhouette lines, this would be the likely quickest solution to implement but I'm not sure it would look quite the way Architects would want for Plan/Elevation/Section views.


So, Enscape, make Architects and Interior Designers even more reliant on your software and less likely to go to another platform like Lumion or TwinMotion or D5, by leveraging the strength of Enscape as a true plug-in that can help further develop the model without any additional or redundant outside of the model work.
