This enables the details to group in the project file in the same way as in the resource file. When you insert drafting views from the resource file into your project file, the view type grouping will come along with your detail view.Since all of the drafting views are listed alphanumerically in the Insert Views dialog box, they will be sorted by the CSI division making it easy to locate the desired detail. When you use the “ Insert Views from File” command from the Insert tab, you will notice the importance of the name. While this naming is not required and not noticeable while in a project file, it is still important. Give each view name a prefix with the division number, such as “07-” for the 07-Roof grouping. Organizing the detail views in the desired grouping is half of the solution to this organizational system. To do this, simply highlight the desired detail drafting view, go to the Properties palette and select the desired Drafting View Type from the list after picking on the arrow to the right.Īfter changing the view type to the desired CSI division, the view will shift to the selected grouping in the Project Browser. With the various view types in the Revit project file which contains all of your details, you can then assign each detail to the desired view type. The point here is to divide your details into logical groupings. The above naming is a suggestion and can be modified to better suit your situation. The following are some examples of drafting view type naming:
Repeat this process to create multiple new view Types. In the Type Properties dialog box, pick the Duplicate button to the right to create a new view type. When a drafting view selected, pick the Edit Type button.
The first thing to do is to have a variety of Drafting View types in the file, from which you can select. When you create a Drafting View in Revit, it will use the system family “Drafting View” with a type of “Detail”. The key to this process is to organize the details based upon CSI division and to name the details with the division prefix.
It is easy to locate the desired detail within a detail resource file which contains all of the company’s details. It is easy to locate the desired detail within the Revit project file where it is placed.Ģ.There are many different ways of organizing details inside Revit, but I like this process outlined in this blog article. As companies develop their drafting view details inside Revit, the organization of the the details becomes more important.
