MORE DETAILS

Free SheetGen

From the Autodesk App Store:

Description

A free add-in that allows you to create multiple Drawings Sheets, place Views based on a pre-defined template, and easily manage Drawing Sheet Revisions.

Main features

• Create multiple Drawings Sheets
• Place Views on Sheets based on a pre-defined template
• Manage Drawing Sheet Parameters
• Manage Drawing Sheet Revisions
• Manage Views (duplicate, delete and edit Parameters)

Sheets by View

From the Autodesk App Store:

Description

This add-in will help you to select your desired views in an Autodesk® Revit® file to create a sheet for each of them simultaneously.

By this app, You can set the title block used in sheet, sheet number, and sheet name in a table and multiple sheets will be created from selected views.

Also, you could set the location of the view inside its title block. This feature provides two options for you:

• Pick a point inside the title block as the center point of the viewport
• Or pick two points to create a region. And automatically, the center of this region will set as the center of the viewport. Also, by this option, you could simply define the margins of the title block to create the available region inside it.

NOTICE: During running this plugin you could use Revit and modify your model (It uses modeless forms). However, you could not edit the views or sheets name and number, or delete them (If you do, Revit will show you an error to prevent unwanted changes).

Drawing Central

From the Autodesk App Store:

Description

Drawing Central’s main purpose is to save Drafters (and Engineers) time and effort. One way to assist this noble cause, is to reduce confusion. Questions like “How many electrical drawings are ready for issue?” and “You want me to rev-up 50 drawings before lunch?” can easily be answered by creating your own drawing registration system. But “where is the register?”. More confusion. I think you get the point!

This is where Drawing Central comes in by managing a project-based configuration system to reduce confusion. It also has an extremely easy to use interface. Once your drawing has been configured it knows exactly where to find the project file and therefore the correct drawing register. This allows for the other part of the equation Automation. Now you have this “link”, you can automatically update (or sync) your drawings with the latest project data. No more confusion.

Question: Do you know how good it feels to just sit back and watch 100 title block items change before your eyes? No? Well, now you know how to find out.

• Number family instances sequentially following a selected curve; parking spaces, rooms, or any family instance with a parameter. Never again number them manually one by one!
• Number doors and windows after room numbers. In a few clicks, you will number all doors and windows after a standard naming system. The benefits are a coherent drawing set, and doors and windows can be easily identified in schedules.
• Create an Excel table with all the warnings classified in order of importance. It allows team members to focus on critical warnings that affect the integrity of the documentation and the performance of the model instead of trying to fix all trivial warnings.
