When working with building components, you can take steps to improve results in
Revit.
- To optimize model performance in
Revit, whenever possible, work with the building component as a bounding box at coarse scale.
- Because building components can have large quantities of detailed geometry, they might take a few minutes to open. If opening the component takes too long, or if zooming and panning performance is slow, ask its creator to further simplify the model prior to exporting.
- If the component opens in
Revit with a different orientation than expected, either rotate the component in the Family Editor or ask its creator to create a custom Universal Coordinate System (UCS) and re-export the ADSK file using the new UCS.
- Use the Autodesk Inventor Translation report to review the export results. The report lists the contents of the ADSK file. Verify that the model elements were exported as you expected. Double-click the ADSK file to open the report in your Web browser.
