Change is part of every project. It’s unavoidable—and often the biggest pain point when using building design software. We built our new Mass Change feature in LAVA specifically to solve this.
When a spec changes or an entire floor plan is adjusted, the last thing you want to do is manually edit every shear wall or beam one by one. That’s tedious, error-prone, and a real time sink.
With Mass Change, you can quickly select multiple shear walls or beams and update their properties all at once. Want to change the material, size, or any other property? No problem. You can do it in the graphics window or by selecting them on the toolbar—it’s entirely up to you.
We’ve put together a short video to show you exactly how it works. Watch it below to see how you can make big changes—without the usual hassle.
We’re excited about what this feature can do for your projects. It’s another step toward making LAVA the most efficient, reliable tool for whole-building wood design.
If you have questions, feedback, or ideas for what you’d like to see next in LAVA, let us know. We’re always listening.
