Details: Uses Revit's built-in DWG export feature.
- From the file menu, go to export > options > exports setups dwg/dxf. Click on the solids tab, and select ACIS solids.
- Hit OK, and return to the export menu > CAD formats > DWG.
- Import the model into SketchUp Pro.
1. Click Application Menu -> Export -> Options -> Export Layers DWG/DXF (for AutoCAD) or Export Layers DGN (for MicroStation). 2. In the Export Layers dialog, Revit Architecture displays values from a layer mapping file, using the appropriate standard for the current locale.
Export one or more views and sheets to DWG or DXF format.
- Click File tab Export CAD Formats (DWG) or (DXF).
- In the DWG (or DXF) Export dialog, for Select Export Setup, select the desired setup.
- Select the views and sheets to export.
- If you are ready to export, click Next.
ACIS is a solid modeling technology. For example, ACIS represents a cube as a single object or shape with 6 sides. A polymesh is a 3D shape consisting of multiple polygons that are meshed (joined) together. For example, a polymesh cube consists of 6 square surfaces that are joined together to form the cube shape.
You can explode imported DWG 3D solid (not Polymesh) geometry in the Family Editor environment.
- Select the import symbol.
- Click Modify | Imports in Families tab Import Instance panel Explode drop-down (Partial Explode) or (Full Explode). The 3D solids are now preserved as free form elements.
Can I export multiple views or sheets in Revit? Yes you can. On exporting to AutoCAD or DWF, “Râ€>Export>CAD Formats, on the Export option, change this to “In session views/sheet setâ€, under show in list, choose the views to export by ticking the relevant views.
With the Revit model open, Click the Application Menu (“Big Râ€) > “Export†> “CAD Formats†> Select “DWG“. In the “DWG Export†dialog box – Click on the ellipsis (button with 3 dots) to open the “Modify DWG/DXF Export Setup†dialog box.
Rotate your 3D view (or place camera) in the position you want to have your view in 2D. Place the view on the sheet (you can use empty sheet so you won't need to delete tables later) and keep the sheet view active. Go to “Râ€>Export>CAD Formats>DWG (you can use DXF as well). Adjust settings if needed and click Next.
To open the section view, double-click the section header, or select the section view from the Sections grouping of the Project Browser. The section view changes when the design changes or the section line is moved.
Solution:
- If the section line is invisible, change the floor plan scale factor back to a value that enable you to see the section line.
- Select the section line.
- In the properties, locate the parameter “hide at scales coarser thanâ€.
Click View tab Create panel (Section). (Optional) In the Type Selector, select a view type from the list, or click Edit Type to modify an existing view type or create a new view type. Place the cursor at the starting point of the section, and drag through the model or family.
Select your view window in the section you want to break. 2 "zig-zag" break symbols appear on each line (pictured). Click on one of these to create either a horizontal or vertical break as required. Drag the extents to create the break you want.
- Enable the section box in a 3D view.
- Open an associated view such as a plan view or an elevation view.
- In the Project Browser, right-click the 3D view name, and click Show Section Box.
- In the associated view, drag the blue arrow controls to resize the section box.
Create a section. Select the section, and on the options bar, there is a button that says "split segment". Press that, and you have your jogged secion.
