    Default Controlling toolpalets from a central location

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    we are setting up some standard toolpalettes in our office so that everyone is using the same layers, blocks etc.

    Is there a way to have a file saved on the server which all the technicians computers are linked to so that if someone amends a toolpalette it automatically gets updated with the changes upon startup.

    hope that makes sense

    Sorry are we talking AutoCAD here or Revit??

    In Revit when you load a family, into a project, if you edit the main file nothing happens to loaded families. If you edited the family loaded into a project, nothing happens to the main file. You will have to edit the main file and reload it into Revit for it to update.
