Revit grids can be exported to AutoCAD Architecture.
The AutoCAD Architecture grid is created in the plane of the lowest level of the Revit model that is not lower than the bottom of the view model outline. The multi-view blocks for the grid bubbles are anchored to the ends of the grid lines and will be created in the same plane.
The attribute text in each grid bubble is defined by the Revit grid name. The shape of the grid bubble is generated from the Revit grid head symbol. The scale of the generated grid bubble and text in AutoCAD Architecture is the scale of the current Revit 3D view.
Revit grid components are converted to AutoCAD Architecture grid components as follows:
Revit Component | AutoCAD Architecture Component |
---|---|
grid lines | custom grid object |
grid bubbles | multi-view blocks anchored to custom grid |
grid bubble text | attribute value in multi-view blocks
Note: The attribute value is editable in
AutoCAD Architecture.

In the Export section of the Revit.ini add the key ExportACAObjects and set its value to 1.
To export a Revit grid to AutoCAD Architecture
The selected view is exported as a DWG file.
If necessary, you can modify the grid in AutoCAD Architecture. For more information, search for “Grids” and “Multi-View Blocks” in the AutoCAD Architecture help.
