Hi
I know that Navisworks is great to append all disciplines into one layout, but what is the best method to create drawings of that layout??
Thanks

Hi Patrick
I just tryed it and it's not so good.
With the NWD file from Navisworks append in Autocad, there is no snap points to the objects. It's not good to place dimensions.
I'm using Plant Design Suite Ultimate 2016 and I can not append the 3D DWFx file from Navisworks in Autocad.
So I will try something else.
Thanks
Hi
Maybe.
I question myself: Why did I buy the Plant Design Suite???
I was looking for a Suite whit witch I can create equipment (Inventor), structure (Revit), piping (Plnat 3D), append all of this in a software (Navisworks) to check everything ans ALSO can do drawing of my entire layout......... I want all of this to be interoperable (keep intelligence after changes).
I know that each discipline edit there parts and assemblies and make there own drawings, but I wiched I could at least produce a drawing of my complete layouts.
I'm still searching...
You can do piping in Inventor pro which to me is much better than the plant design.
I would get it all in Revit...if you need to create drawings and sections you can do it all in there....You can make a complete set of drawings in Revit.
Push it to Navis to do the clash tests....that's it...if you know you modeled a clash fre model...you don't even need navis.
What exactly do you mean by that.
I work with all the different softwares....bringing them all together in Revit and Navis. What is the end result you want?
Facility managment?
Hi
I would like to have ''interoperability'' as they say at Autodesk.
I want to append an Inventor part or assembly into Revit.
I don't want to insert STEP file.
If I make modifications in my Inventor's part and go back in Revit, will I see my Inventor modification?
Sory if I'm not clear enough.
Yes...it will work like that.
Depending on the workflow you would be creating Revit families....
Out of Inventor you will want to export out as a ADSK file and open in as a Revit family. This will also keep your models a little lighter.
