Prerequisites
The converted part of the car frame reshapes itself automatically with the cabin width, instead of staying fixed like a plain CAD model.
Steps
1.) Understand the available LOD display options. For any occurrence, DigiPara Liftdesigner offers these Level of Development (LOD) display modes:
By Parent — the default; the related object takes the same setting as its parent.
Off — the occurrence is not displayed at all.
Bounding Box — one box is shown around the geometry of the occurrence and all its children, instead of the real geometry.
Bounding Box per Occurrence — an individual box is shown around each child occurrence's geometry.
Polygons — displayed as designed, full detail.
Setting appropriate LOD levels protects intellectual property by simplifying components for lower LODs, and keeps 3D elevator exports and planning drawings from becoming unnecessarily complex.
2.) Set an individual LOD setting via LOD Quickedit. In the Occurrences docking window, select an occurrence you want to simplify at lower LODs — for example, a screw connection that adds detail but no real value to the elevator project — right-click it, and choose LOD Quickedit to set its display mode per LOD level.
3.) Check the result in the Developer LOD View. The Developer LOD View sheet, loaded automatically alongside the Developer Work Area, lets you check all your LOD settings for the component at a glance.
Result
The car frame's less important detail (such as screw connections) is hidden or simplified at lower LOD levels, while still showing full detail at LOD MAX, and you can verify this at a glance in the Developer LOD View.
