# BIM That Mirrors the Day

We’re extending VisiLean’s BIM story to where most teams work each day: the 2D drawing. With ViewSync, Live Mode, and Trade Colour for mark‑ups, your filters now drive what the plan shows. 3D also gains Trade Colour for quick trade reads.

### Why This Matters

Site reviews fall short when plans lag reality. Live Mode shows actual dates, so what’s on the board matches what’s on site. Clear visuals by trade and zone cut noise and speed decisions.

### What’s New?

ViewSync links activity filters to zones and mark‑ups on 2D, updating the drawing as you narrow focus. Trade Colour adds a toggle to read areas by trade or by zone across mark‑ups. Key highlights: 2D BIM with ViewSync, Live Mode, and Trade Colour for mark‑ups; 3D adds Trade Colour.

### How It Helps

Morning briefings tighten up, with the plan reflecting the exact scope you’re discussing. Walks and sign‑offs move faster because everyone sees who owns what, where, and when. Evidence and exports stay aligned with the view you filtered, improving audits and hand‑offs.

### 3 Example use case scenarios

Filter to Drywall tasks due today: ViewSync reveals only those zones and mark‑ups for a focused site walk. Switch to Trade Colour during a coordination call to confirm responsibilities by area. Turn on Live Mode to track late concrete pours against actuals and redirect crews in the moment.

### **Key Considerations & Caution Points**

**2D BIM (Split View)**

* Live Mode, ViewSync, and Trade Mode are available only in the BIM split view.
* Live Mode and Trade Mode cannot run together; switch one off before enabling the other.
* In Live Mode, the shape properties panel is disabled.
* Live Mode, ViewSync, and Trade Mode allow panning and zooming only—no editing.
* In ViewSync, the BIM view shows colours only for tasks present in the paired non-BIM view; align your filters on the other half.

**3D BIM (New)**

* Planned vs Actual is available only in Full View.
* Trade Mode is available only in Split View.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://changelog.visilean.com/changelog/release-6.0-2025/bim-that-mirrors-the-day.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
