I have a unique instance to develop a library of wall openings for fork trucks of various sizes in existing buildings. In addition it would be ideal to see these opening dimensions in Navisworks. Attached is a PNG of an AutoCAD Architectural model in Navisworks. And in the most recent Navisworks versions it is able to read AutoCAD text (as well it's searchable in Navisworks).
I haven't found a method in Revit to reproduce the same type of family in Revit, WHICH carries its dimensions into Navisworks.
AutoCAD text and dimensions placed in model space are 3D so Navisworks can see them. Revit text and dimensions placed on plans/sections/elevations are 2D annotation so Navisworks cannot see them.
If you want to show Revit text and dimensions in Navisworks then export the views to DWG and add them to Navisworks.
Thanks for the explanation. Then best to stick with AutoCAD. No reason to make more conversion steps. Maybe Revit ought to consider 3D space annotations.

Never mind. The below won't work.
If you have a specific 3D view to export then you can place dimensions in that view, export to Navisworks using Current view, and see if the dimensions stay.
