Attached files

[GoldenGateNetwork]

Good morning. I have a file named "_Sheets" with several attached files: "Pool", "House 1" & "House 2", I am working on the documentation part on my "_Sheets" file and I sometimes have to make changes to the "Pool" file or to the "House 1" file... and I have to close "_Sheets" file in order to be able to open the attached file, make the changes, close it and open the "_Sheets" file again, this operation it's a lot of time consuming. I'd like to keep my "_Sheets" file always open, make any changes to the attached files with no need to close it.

Any suggestions please?

Thank you

What about working in two different Revit sessions concurrently ?

@barthbradley Thank you for your suggestion, could you please explain how could it be?: working in two different Revit sessions concurrently ?

I mean, launch another session of Revit and open files in that session -- as opposed to opening multiple files in one session.

another way saveas as to another file name of your attached file and open concurrently the two files, your main file and rename attached file and see if helps. thanks

However you start Revit on your computer -- do that twice.  For instance, if you open Revit by double-clicking on a shortcut icon on the desktop, then double-click on the shortcut icon again to open a second session of Revit. You can do it again and again to open multiple sessions of Revit.   Get it?
