Hi there,

I have no problem importing objects from revit city to revit file. I don't seem to be able to import BMI objects into my revit file. Please assist me with this matter.

Thanks Lilian

BMI objects?

 

If you actually meant files downloaded from BIM Object, those files originate from many different sources. you will have to be more specific.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

BIMobjects host sketchup, archicad, DWG, Revit file and many others. So you have to choose Revit icon for you to open the file in Revit. If you choose other file format, Revit isn't going to read that file.

Hi Syman,

Thank you for your recommendation using BIM objects previously. I managed to download the files in revit version. But how do I insert the BIM revit file into my project?

I was not able to load it via family.

Thanks in advance.

Go to the 3d and copy the curtainwall style and paste it into your project.
