Common and live families database between Revit files

Common and live families database between Revit files

There should be the possibility to have a live family database for multiple project files. In projects with multiple similar buildings, divided into multiple Revit files, it is hard to automatize working with Revit Families. There should be a way that updating a family into one project, updates it into all other selected projects, so that everybody works with the same set of families.

Why this would be useful:

- checking correct families are used in correct places (if naming is different this is a lot harder).

- adding classification parameters to a family once, instead of many times in each project.

- automatization of Type Marks & other parameters with DiRoots (for example), where family naming needs to be consistent.
