Hi guys
I'm a new revit user and I'm stuck on this since yesterday
I'm trying to import a 3D structure of a foreign program within revit and use this structure in the project
the goal is that I can fit it in the architecture with a solid black representation
here are my attempts till now
DXF 01: Import CAD
- Import the DXF file with "import CAD";
- Problem: the import is not cut in any view;
DXF 02: Make a Family
- Open a new family file;
- Load the DXF, save;
- Load the newly created family in the project;
- Representation in section view is now correct;
- Problem: Doesn't cut in plan; can't make the representation of the structure to become solid black when sectioned;
DXF 03: Conceptual Mass
- Open a new conceptual mass file and load the DXF;
- Problem: Revit crashes at this stage;
At that point I looked for the IFC file, luckily got it
IFC 01: Link Revit
- Open the IFC file in Revit; saves the file as a project and use "link Revit";
- Problem: Come linked various levels; can't make the representation of the structure to become solid black when sectioned;
IFC 02:
- Open the IFC file, gathers the whole structure and make a group;
- Use ctrl-c ctrl-v in architectural project;
- Representation of cuts is now correct;
- Structure is cut correctly in plan;
- Problem: Can't make the representation of the structure to become solid black when sectioned;
thank you
and sorry for my english, I did the best I could
