Phases in Navisworks

I'm working with Revit and with Navisworks.

In Revit I've added a lot of phases to my elements. Now I want to use those phases also in Navisworks to add those elements in a easy way to my timeline.

 

Is this possible?

When I look to the properties of a Revit element, I don't find the property 'phase'.

It also means that it's not possible to make sets based on that property?

 

Is there a work-around?

When you export the NWC file, check your Navisworks Settings.  You will want to "Convert Element IDs", "Convert element parameters = ALL", and "Convert element properties".  Then when you check the properties in NW, you will see FOR SOME OBJECTS a tab for the Phase.  I have notice however, that not all objects will pick up the Phases they were created in.  Example: in my electrical models, the conduit shows the phase, while the panels do not.

I've changed the export settings, and now I get more information about the elements in Navisworks.

But still, I don't get the information about the phases into Navisworks. Is it because I've just a Generic Model in Revit?

 

I'll attach my Revit-file.

Check some of the parameters/properties within Revit of the objects.  Do you see a Phase value?

No Phase property to find in Navisworks...

Check your selection resolution. If you open your selection tree, try grabbing the elements from a different part of the model hierarchy. You should get more columns than just the three that are shown in your image.
