Revit Page

This page enables you to adjust the NWC export options for the Revit file exporter.

Convert Construction Parts

When using the Revit 2016 Construction Modelling and Assemblies feature, you have an option of exporting either the original object or construction parts into Autodesk Navisworks. Select this box if you want to export the construction parts; clear this check box if you want to export the original object.

Convert Element Ids

Select this check box to export the ID numbers for each Revit element.

When this check box is clear, the file exporter ignores IDs.

Convert Element Parameters

Specifies how Revit parameters are read. Select from the following options:

• None - the file exporter does not convert parameters.
• Elements - the file exporter converts parameters for all found elements.
• All - the file exporter converts parameters for all found elements, including the referenced elements. As a result, extra property tabs are available in Autodesk Navisworks.

Convert Linked Files

Revit projects can embed external files as links. When this check box is selected, the linked files will be included in the exported NWC file. By default, this check box is clear.

Note: Only linked Rvt files can be exported; the linked dwg and any other file formats are not supported.

Convert Room as Attribute

Indicates whether rooms attributes are supported. By default, this check box is selected, and data for each room converts into a single shared room attribute.

Convert URLs

Indicates whether URL property data is converted. By default, this check box is selected and the hyperlinks are supported in the converted file.

Coordinates

Specifies whether to use shared or internal coordinates for file aggregation. By default, shared coordinates will be used. Shared coordinates can be viewed and modified outside of Revit.

Export

Specifies how geometry is exported. Select from the following options:

• Entire Project - all geometry in the project is exported.
• Current View - everything that is currently visible is exported.
• Selection - only the currently selected geometry is exported.

Export Room Geometry

Indicates whether room geometry is exported.

Try and Find Missing Materials

When this check box is selected (the default option), the file exporter looks for a match for the materials missing from the export.

Note: If any inappropriate materials are applied to the model geometry as a result, clear this check box to fix the problem.
