Description
In this course, you will learn:
- In this series, there's a little something for every Revit designer—beginners and seasoned users alike. Each video focuses on a specific tip, trick, or troubleshooting technique within Revit.
- Do you import CAD files and want to achieve consistency?
- Want to get more from your dimensions? Need to check all of the views in a project and see if the settings are correct? Want to consistently configure crop boxes across the entire project?
- What about getting all the parameters in your family content in just the right order?
- These are just some of the topics in store. With a new video every week, you are sure to find something useful to add to your growing arsenal of Revit tools and techniques.
