Revit :: 2013 Create / Edit Family Templates?
Dec 11, 2013I have a situation where I need to place a curved door in a curved wall, I do not want to model in place or look for a work around but would like to create a family template that that could be used frequently.
In previous versions I was able to copy the metric door.rft and rename it to i.e. Metric Door_Radial Host.rfa. I would then be able to edit this template to suit my requirements, save and rename to .rft. This template would then be live.
In 2013 it seems that I cannot open a .rfa file for editing.
Revit :: Titleblock Templates
Sep 9, 2011I created a custom template family for a 36"x24" titleblock. now, I need to create one for a 24"x18" template family. My issue is, what is the easiest way to do this?
I cannot copy and paste content from one family to another for some reason (unless I am doing something wrong). I was thinking the easiest way is to copy the family, rename it and move the content around so that it becomes a 24"x18" template - BUT - does this affect how it plots?
Revit :: How To Change Templates

View 2 Replies View RelatedRevit :: Customizing Viewport Templates
Mar 6, 2012I'm finding that setting up views on a sheet is a bit cumbersome especially when creating a sheet with a lot of views. For example, I'm creating casework details & elevations and our firm's stardard is to basically set up a grid on the sheet to frame each detail drawing. The process I've been using is: 1. Place the view on the sheet, 2. change the viewport to a modified template that simply changes the text and gets rid of the default # & circle title. 3. I then have to realign the title text with the view. 4. THEN I essentially draw 2d linework to create the view frames on the sheet for each detail view.
This just seems like a cumbersome process for a program that's so intuitive. I would imagine/HOPE there would be a way to change the default for when I place a view on a page. I'd like the views to automatically show the view frame/border when they are placed on the page and then I could simply manipulate the frames to fit each page.
If there's no way to really change this default then I would imagine it would be better to change our office standard to save time. Below is a pic to show our standard sheet layout.
Revit :: Templates And Families Missing?

Revit :: View Templates In Dependent Views?
Jun 20, 2013I would like to have two different layouts of my site plan. One is existing and does not show any of the new construction. The other is a complete view of the project. Is there a way to keep the existing site plan dependent while turning off the new construction to show only the previous + demo? If I set up a view template I cannot alter in the dependent view to make the changes that I want as options are greyed out. Is the only way to do this to create them as independent views?
View 2 Replies View RelatedRevit :: View Templates And Detail Lines
Aug 12, 2013Detail lines have global view settings - you cannot change appearance with a View Template. The Detail Items V/G category doesnt seem to include detail lines.
It is often necessary to use detail lines to avoid the chore of mading up a family to represent simple objects in plan or section - eg complex fixed furnishings like counters and shelves. Then when it comes to doing a schematic electrical layout where I want everything greyed out except the electrical content, I can use V/G overrides on all family content but not the linework. I have to pick all this invidually and then Override Graphics in View.
As with V/G template overrides, I dont want these overrides to permeate globally hence not changing line styles.
Revit :: Retaining View Templates While Linking?
Aug 14, 2013We are having a problem at our office. We are using REVIT 2014 and In our central model we link in our consultants models and hide what we dont want to see per sheet by using veiw templates. It is all fine and dandy until we have to load a newer model from them in. We delete the old model name the new one the same name once we do this everything we wanted hidden comes back on on our sheets and we have to rinse and repeat.
View 3 Replies View RelatedRevit :: Setup And Manage Some View Templates?
Sep 23, 2011I am trying to setup and manage some view templates.
Can changes made in the View Template settings Automatically update in ALL views that are utilizing that specific template, without re-applying? My only way now is to select all the views from the project browser and Apply View Template again. (every time i make changes for that matter)
Some files i work in, other users come in and override lots of the view template stuff on an element basis. Is there a command to reset all overrides for that specific view, or multiple views?
Revit :: Transferring View Templates - RAC 2011

View 6 Replies View RelatedRevit :: View Templates And Filtering Detail Items
Jul 10, 2013I have made up furniture for layout views using the metric detail item template. Probably too many in this model category but it was a short cut to achieving presentation layouts. How can I now filter out certain detail items without zapping the rest. In this case it will be loose furniture but some fixed furniture is needed to remain visible in the next stage construction layout views. I want to do this by view template so that a) the view on sheet can be switched back to the presentation layout and b) keep the sheet as a revision rather than a new sheet.
Its not my preferred way of dong this but I am adapting to another architectural practices standard where sheet numbers are fixed and the layouts (GA's) retain the same number through sketch - tender - construction - as built stages (using a status sheet parameter and revision sequence)
AutoCAD Inventor :: Default Location For Templates In 2013
Apr 21, 2012I'm having problem changing the default location for templates in Application Options of Inventor 2013. If I set the location to a folder in my server, the template files aren't showing up. It's like there's nothing there. I've never found this problem before. The templates are shared on the network, so it's the same for everybody. Now it's necessary to everyone copy them locally, which is not the best practice in my opinion.

Aug 29, 2013we have just upgraded from Inv 2011 to 2013. I am trying to create the drawing templates in 2013 by using the blank 2013 template and then copying our border from 2011 onto it. This works a treat apart from 1 thing.
The i properties do not get copied over as well so the sheet is blank from drawing number, title and the custom properties etc.

Sep 24, 2013I was recently provided an upgraded workstations, among other things featuring 32gb of ram. Although the new machine dramatically increased rendering power, Revit doesn't run noticeably faster and only makes use of 4gb max of memory, the same as the previous machine with 16gb total RAM. Is there any way of allocating more RAM and/or processor power to revit? A fair bit of searching didn't reveal anything.

Revit :: Using Opacity Map In 2013 Material?
May 8, 2013I am trying to use an Opacity Map in a Revit 2013 material.
