Demo – Create Revit Panels Directly From AutoCAD Panels

_config.yml

This is a demo of my latest plug-in which demonstrates a proof of concept – i.e. a Minimum Viable Product.

What does it do?

If you have drawn some panels in AutoCAD, this plugin allows you to quickly and accurately convert those panels into Native Revit walls. You can then give Architects and builders those Revit files - otherwise it will be very difficult for them to work with AutoCAD files.

This gives you a competitive advantage over your competition, because you can quickly and easily do it – and it makes the job of architects and builders easier – especially given the rapid push everyone’s making into BIM technologies.

Enough talk. Here is the demo. Enjoy:

(I’ve made the command so that it works even when you have AutoCAD open. This allows detailers to quickly switch to Revit and AutoCAD and to delete and restart if need be. Also requiring that AutoCAD be open ensure that detailers know exactly what file they are working with and what files they are converting. It eliminates a whole lot of errors.)
