How to bring detailed object properties from Revit into Navisworks?

[JoseDiosdado]

Good Morning Everyone,

I been testing a couple of different options to have object properties come into Nais from Revit. I read a couple of post about this and i learned about the convert element properties option/check box under the file reader settings. But the properties I'm looking for are stil not showing up (see below). Any other sudgetions?

Thank you for your post.  In this case the properties are something the development team is investigating for further enhancements.  The objective would be to enable a more seamless transition of these files from one Autodesk software to another.  To help in building momentum and explain the need for this (key verbiage is: business impact) please use the link below.  This will add addition attention and time to address this in an upcoming update/release of the product.  Thank you.

Jose,

I was trying to do the same thing with Autocad MEP and was pointed to a regedit property that made it all work.  Might work for your Revit version as well.

RUn Regedit, then click on Edit at the top bar, then find, then type hiddenprops..   

In my case, it drilled down to the Navisworks Manage x64 menu, 11.0, Autocad.  Hiddenprops was set to 0 so, I changed it to 1 and now my property definitions from Autocad MEP show up in NavisWorks Properties.

Example:  Conduit Object now shows up in NavisWorks as it's own tab under Properties.

The data is a bit scrambled but, I'm trying to figure that out with help on here in another post.

I'd LOVE to see the properties in Extended Data that I have in my property sets in Autocad MEP, show up the same way in Navisworks..
