Sunny Design Pro: Comparing projects

It is useful to compare different project scenarios against one another when designing a system. Copy the active project to compare different project scenarios. The copy can be edited and immediately compared with other projects. However, it can also be copied and edited again instead. You can compare several alternatives with each other.

Procedure:

  1. Open the desired project.
  2. Click on the drop-down list Add alternative in the header and select Add alternative.
  3. A copy is made of the current project named "Alternative 1".
  4. Select the desired alternative from the drop-down list (if necessary).
  5. To configure the individual system components, select the respective system component.
  6. To edit the project design, adjust the required configurations.
  7. To add another alternative, open the drop-down list in the header once again. Then click on the [+] button beside the project you want to copy.
  8. To compare the alternatives, open the drop-down list in the header once again. Then click on the option Compare alternatives.
  9. An overview opens, showing a tabular comparison of all project alternatives.
  10. To adopt the design of an alternative for further planning, click on [Adopt design]. A dialog box opens, confirming that the alternative has been adopted.
  11. In the following query, select whether the current original is to be adopted as an alternative. If you click on [Yes], the previous original will be renamed as "Alternative *". If you click on [No], the previous original will be deleted.
  12. To delete an alternative, click on the trash can icon on the right-hand side, either in the comparison overview or drop-down list.
