Join Eric Wing for an in-depth discussion in this video Importing details, part of Revit 2018: Essential Training for MEP (Imperial).
- [Voiceover] There is an awesome way to keep your details…organized that I'd like to show you.…Wouldn't it be a pain to keep importing the same…auto cad details, then exploding them and messing with…them every time you needed that detail?…You also have to remember which job to steal it from.…Let's take a look at inserting views from another file.…What we'll do in this video is use a master detail file you…downloaded from the lynda.com site to import…details and schedules.…The first thing we need to do is go to the Insert tab…and instead of Load Family, this time we're going to do…something a little different.…
We're going to click Insert From File,…throw in an Insert Views From File.…Then we're going to scroll to where we keep our file.…We're going to find our Master Details file.…This file contains every detail that we use…typically on a project.…Click Open.…Notice now we get a nice list of all the details that we…can bring in.…This one looks familiar.…Let's just click on a few.…I don't care which ones.…
We can scroll down and chose all the drafting views…
