I have also created a Google Custom Search for (what I consider) the major Revit blogs.
Check it out at:
Revit Blog Search
I have created a Google Custom Search page that searches through the major Revit forums. Check it out at:
As of 5 September 2011, the custom search includes these sites:
http://revitclinic.com/
http://www.forums.revitzone.com/
http://revitinfo.com/
http://forums.autodesk.com/
http://www.revitcity.com/
http://www.revitforum.org/
http://forums.augi.com/
For example, let’s say you search for ‘Slanted Walls’ – you would quickly get results from Revit Forum, Revitcity, AUGI and Revit Clinic all in one list. Give it a try!
Let me know if you think there is some other Forum that should be added.
The steps below show how to do it using the i-model plugin (you may also want to look at converting a 3D DWF straight to a 3D PDF):
- Close Revit
- Download and install i-model plug-in for Revit (you will have to register)
- Download and install Bentley View
- Open a Revit project
- Open a 3D view
- In the Ribbon, go to Bentley – Publish as i-model
- Open the i-model DGN in Bentley View
- File – Print to PDF
- Tick ‘Print to 3D’
- Click Printer button
- Choose a place to save your file
- Open the 3D PDF in Adobe Reader
- Have fun navigating your Revit model inside a 3D PDF file.
Do you get annoyed by the warning:
If you are editing a group, and want to make a Duplicate of something, simply scroll to the item in the
Project Browser – right-click – Duplicate.
EDIT (added 5 Dec 2011):
In other words, this tip allows you to create a new Family Type in Edit Group mode. You may get annoyed when you aren’t allowed to make new Family Types when you are in Edit Group mode and Revit just keeps telling you:
Can’t create duplicates in Edit Group mode.
Just use the Project Browser instead – scroll down to the family in question, right click on a Type and Duplicate. Revit will let you do this, even while in Edit Group mode.
During the lesson here is an example of such light tent structures, we learn how to create adaptive components. The main feature of both the tents and adaptive components is their ability to adapt to their surroundings.
