Hey! I use Revit 2013 and I'm having problems while exporting to dwg in the right scale.
I set to export in METERS, and in Autocad, the Model part is in the right scale.
But, when I export the whole Sheet, It goes way too small, to the LAYOUT in CAD.
Is there any way I can set to both MODEL and LAYOUT(SHEET) be exported in the right scale?
Thanks.
There is a small checkbox in one of the export screens that says something like: "Export views to separate DWGs and XREF them to the sheet"
Sorry I don't have Revit open right now for the exact phrasing. If you use that option, it will export several DWG files, with the sheet being its own file and the others XREFed in. I think that will solve the scale problem.
hat im really trying to do is to export the whole sheet, in the right scale to autocad.
I did everything in Revit, and it is all the way i wanted. But my client doesn't use revit and wants it in AUTOCAD. I dont want to re-do everything...
But, yeah, when i export it in mutiple drawings it goes in the right scale to the layout too. but i really wanted the whole sheet to be exported like that.
Well if I had to guess, I would assume that your client would prefer the sheet separate with XREFed drawings. This is pretty typical setup in the AutoCAD world. Keep in mind that Revit does a nice job with this, but it is not perfect. For example, you will get a SEPARATE DWG for each viewport. Not always ideal.
Hello, Hola, Hallo
There is abundant text in the internet for this issue... very extens... so I solved my problem relatively easy (after reading and reading forums and sites and believe its nothing to do or create an revit wishlist)
My problem was: I exported my revit sheets to dwg. In autocad is draw in mm. everything is 1000x largest. so...
1-R-export-options (last down button)-export setups for dwg/dwf-units and coordinates tab-one dwg units is... set your unit!
2-export views or sheets
I hope this problem is solved
Éxitos !
