I am working on a company that designs lots of sports pavillions. It follows that for each project we need to calculate the spectators seating.
I feel that if I create a Revit family with the proper parameters I could make it so much easier, and quicker.
I found this really nice post from BIM Trouble Maker, but am unable to find out how he manage to do it. [URL] .....

How can we figure out whether an Assembly type occupancy has fixed seating or not using revit 2013 API. Which room property tells us about the fixed seating?

If you check the file for the Length (default) parameter, I am multiplying it by the Arm Distance (600mm) so that the pattern repeats while I stretch out the line.
=Chairs * 600 mm
I want to add a parameter for the Arm Distance linked with the actual seat so that if I make the chair wider the pattern would adjust accordingly.
=Chairs * Arm Distance3
This way I could adjust the chair width and Line Based family all at once. However, I am finding that when I add "Arm Distance3" to the equation the Line Based feature stops working.
I'm designing a warehouse with a mezzanine. i goggled all over and didn't really find information on how to model a mezzanine. I didn't find families, and it seems most people use a floor. I can try that.
I also wonder if it is better to use the ground floor and have the mezzanine elevated, or if the mezzanine should be a new level. i see both ways working, but wonder if there is a better option. I also want to add the stairs etc.
I also will need to add railing etc. but this seems a secondary problem now. I'm really surprised Google didn't reveal much since mezzanines are very common.
Why is there such a lack of stuff for sports editing. No scoreboard overlays, no score lower thirds, no lineup graphics. I've looked everywhere on the internet and there's nothing. I've created some of my own stuff but I spend more time creating the graphics than I do actually putting together the video. It's very frustrating the lack of stuff for sports. There should be a sports graphic pack released.
Or better yet. I'd love to see something like this for windows based systems.

I can't believe there's nothing out there as a package to make it easier to put together a sports video and make it look a little more professional at home without spending $4000 for a Tricaster.

run a football (soccer) club for children whose parents are in the British Forces, posted out in Germany.I'm wanting to add a border/insert which can hold a bit of information about the player, to action photos i've taken of the child.
I've found an example of what I want (which will hopefully make more sense!) from a player photo from the football team I follow The border/shape has curved edges and it's main area has the club badge, players details (D.O.B. birthplace, playing position, name and squad number)

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am trying to find the best way to accomplish the task of populating an auditorium section with chairs. So far, I have created the arc path of the section and then offset each row the specified distance. From there I place a copy of the chair at one end of every path and then use the PATH Array tool in AutoCAD LT 2013. While this works, it doesn't seem to be very efficient (can actually be a royal pain, if changes are required) and was wondering if there is a better way to accomplish this goal?
What I would like to do is to use the POLAR Array tool and just work from the first row. That way, I could maintain all the necessary associativity and edit the array as a whole. However, this tool doesn't appear to offer the option of changing the quantities on successive rows, which led me to the above approach.
How I could use the tools differently, or has an exchange app that will accomplish what I am looking to do.
I need to populate a park/sports complex. I need a few people walking and a few people running. I don't have any experience with animating people. What is the best way to do this? I have used 3ds Max for years but never animated people. I found some models on turbo-squid. Should I purchase rigged models? Do I need to purchase mo-cap or is walking/ running easy to do in Max?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've updated to the latest version of Photoshop that finally gives us retina support.. it does look beautiful but is it about to make our life harder? I design for both web and print and decided to test it out.
I created a standard document 1024x768/72, i was given a tiny canvas on screen, definitely not the size it should be, my understanding is that if i save this and load it on non-retina it will be the correct size?
So, if i want to create the same document, but also the correct size on retina, what should the dimensions be? Do i simply double the pixels, increase the resolution? Am i going to be forced to save all graphics twice?

I need to create a few mockups of an Intranet site for a project, the task can be done in HTML and CSS or using an art package.
Ideally I want to be able to change the colour of text, background colour or maybe border colours throughout the site at the change of a hex value as you would on a stylesheet.
Is it possible to group text/assign styles in Photoshop so that any changes will occur throughout my PSD file, in a similar way to styles in a Word doc?
How do you guys go about making mockups? Art package or CSS and HTML?
I've used illustrator a bit for drawing pictures, but never for web graphics... I need to create some tabs (for the top of a webpage). Maybe illustrator isn't the most common tool for this but it's the one I can use the most.

Problem : How can I dsign such an image as a one point, I will see both images (when I am at the bottom of the stairs) ? Any ideas ?

I want to design a postcard for my business, using several photos in a scattered arrangement on the card, with my business name on.
I'm using Elements 5 and have played around with the "create a greeting card" function. It comes close to what I want to do, but it does seem rather basic. As Photoshop always seems have more than one way of doing something, I was wondering if there is more effective way of going about it, buried in Elements somewhere. Or perhaps there is another, (preferably cheap) program that is better at this. One thing I would like to do is to change the background colour on the card and not have to rely on the background templates offered in the special effects palette. Ultimately, I will be getting them professionally printed, so I will need to supply the printer with the art work in the appropriate form.
