Is there a way to set the default path of a file (Print dialog, Field Group File, Name field) other than the default path for user files (Settings Revit)?

 

Background: We store our outputs in a different location (I: \) than our project data (T: \ CADProjekte). Project path is "T: \ CADProjekte" set, so Revit takes always this one and name of project.

 

We would like to set the path I: \%projectname%\PDF\%Planname% any ideas?

 

Question: Maybe in the Revit.ini or in the Regitry?

 

Greetings Andreas

Hi  andreas.buender, I don't believe so, your best bet is from your INI file change the Default path to the top folder level. The user will then need to select the project folder and sub folder as required.

This location is not dynamic, so doesn't  change for each project file.
