WHIPTHREAD - Set to three and delegate duties to more cores.

What do settings 4-15 do? I can't find any answers anywhere.

Rob has a good solution, do it yourself. That also makes it easier to export to your own layers as you define them (assuming you've already set up the translator, takes about an hour, then done for...

They're being lazy, it takes less than 5 minutes to export a generic DWG from Revit.

I did it this morning and put my drawings on my 360-drive so I could do markups and pictures in the field on my...

2014 can indeed do the exploded views, but I haven't tried it using nested families nor in the family editor.

Though it does work great for skid piping systems and tight-fitting duct layouts.

Within the family that is to be shared (ie- the sub-family or nested family), make sure this checkbox is checked.

Make sure your sub-families are "Shared" in the Family Categories dialog. Then when your assembled is "Shared" as well, you will see all the nested data of the sub-families as well.

Everything I listed up top. I keep trying each day, just cuz. I guess I'm just insane, doing the same thing but expecting different results. I really don't know what to do with it at this point.

Yup, tried it. No beans. :unsure:

Nope, no lock.

It's also not a shared palette.

You can always "Unload" your AutoCAD link so you don't have to keep hiding it in every view. Then "Reload" and it pops back in with the latest updates.

I hate AutoCRAP imports. Is it possible to...

I switched us from RomanS.shx to Monospac821BT.ttf

Monospac has a lot of similarity to RomanS, but is a True Type Font so our standards are smoother between AutoCAD and Revit. Also not having to...

I figure I'll add mine, dual 24" 1920x1200 screens.

That's Revit, you cheater.

Fine, here's my Revit layout:

Ok, this has me very confused. I'm using AutoCAD MEP 2014 (though it's present in all variations).

I am using OOTB settings to eliminate network permissions as my issue.

I open my ACAD to an...

1) Determined by what the spaces are used for and what zone isolation is required, if any. This would normally come from the ME.
2) This is usually selected by the ME or someone appointed by the ME...

Did you get it figured out yet, Styk?

I'll check it out tomorrow morning when I get back in the office. Sorry I didn't see this earlier.

Revit 2014 is said to be able to explode 3D AutoCAD elements into Revit elements. I'd like to be a guinea pig as well.

Yeah, your computer looks plenty capable.

For my MEP projects, I link the Arch and Struct models. For Arch, I link the MEP and Struct models. For Struct, I don't link anything cause it doesn't...

I agree with Styk for speed. Though my mind hates wire-frame, I deal with the marginal degradation in speed to use hidden line.

Revit is indeed a resource hog, close out all your other programs if...

We've tested it side-by-side with Trane Trace with almost identical results. The difference was small enough that it was moot. Some [of our] engineers don't like Revit, but the ones that do get...

Happy to help. :beer:
