What it does
| Export | What you get | Plan |
|---|---|---|
| Excel clash report | Every clash group and clash, totals that match the Forma panel, overlap in inches, and a rating: Consequential, Review or Inconsequential | Free |
| Rating rules | Touch and hard-overlap thresholds, plus keyword rules for clearance zones, hanger hardware and supports | Free |
| Navisworks saved viewpoints | A folder per clash group and a view per clash, named exactly as in Model Coordination, in folders by rating, in shared or internal coordinates | Pro |
| Navisworks search sets | One per clash group, named like its Model Coordination header, that selects its elements, plus an ALL set per rating | Pro |
How to use it
- In Forma Model Coordination, open a clash check and set Group clashes by to Object Name.
- Click the gold JGT Clash Export button at the right end of the viewer toolbar.
- Check the counts, pick the report name and coordinates, then click Export and choose a folder.
- In Navisworks: Saved Viewpoints, right-click, Import Viewpoints. Sets, right-click, Import Search Sets.
Activate Pro
- Buy Pro on Gumroad. Launch price: $4.99 with code LAUNCH through December 31, 2026. Got a team code? Enter it at checkout instead.
- Copy the license key from your receipt.
- Right-click the extension's icon in the Chrome toolbar, choose Options (or click License at the bottom of the export panel), paste the key and choose Activate.
- Close and reopen the export panel.
Help
- No gold button on the toolbar: reload the Forma tab after installing or updating.
- "Set Group clashes by to Object Name": that's the grouping the export reads. Change it in the clash panel and open the export again.
- A viewpoint lands in the wrong place: export again with the other coordinate option (Shared or Internal), to match how the models were exported from Revit.
- Chrome asks to let acc.autodesk.com edit files: that's Chrome's rule for any site writing into a folder you picked. Allow it once.
- Moving to a new computer: remove the key on the old browser's options page, then activate it on the new one. Each key covers up to 5 browsers.
- Still stuck? Reply to your Gumroad receipt email and it comes straight to me.
