I think you have the talent to teach revit very precise and fast!!! Way much better than other youtubers. Thanks a lot!
"Accept primary" command was the curicial point to teach. Other videos that i have seen so far didnt tell that. Thanks for that! Great video.
I had noticed that absent from a few of the other tutorials I had watched previously. Thanks for the feedback, glad you found the video valuable.
Regards
Niall
This video was much more clear than others I watched. Good job!
Thanks Michelle, glad you found it useful.
Niall
This tutorial is perfect. Other tutorials don't really explain properly about applying the preferred option or the whole selection process. I am a recent subscriber and I am finding these invaluable. Thanks so much. 👍
That's great to hear, I am delighted you are finding value in the tutorials. Thanks again for the kind words!
All the best,
Niall
Always clear and concise - appreciated.
Thanks for the feedback, glad you found it useful.
Good knowledge from you. Thanks
Great tutorial, thanks
I really like your graphics set-up! A tutorial would be very appreciated. Keep up the good work
Thanks Adam, have a graphics tutorial coming up in the next few weeks so keep an eye out for it.

Niall
Great! Thank you for this.
No problem Kristoffer, glad you found the video informative.
Niall
You answered my question with this video 😁 Thank you!
Glad to have heped :)
nice tutorial thanks... ^^... btw how do you that white themed 3D model view? ^^
Great tutorial Your tutorial is veeeeeeeery clear unlike the mambo jumbo that crap that other guys are delivering. can you kindly do the construction phasing.
Hi there. If you go to my channel page, videos, you will see I have a detailed guide on project phasing already uploaded.
Thanks for the feedback,
Niall
@@8020BIM truly appreciate it. You are touching lives
@@Architivist_ glad to be helping 🙂
Niall. Have you done any tutorials since this was put out that expands on this topic? For example, what other criteria (dimensional etc) can be covered in design options?
Thanks. Btw, I am working with design options now and I understand it is useful to show the highlighted pieces for the options but I would like that the main model is not greyed out. Do you know how I make so that they the main model looks the same regardless if I have an option A or B put?
Will this technique work for varying wall heights as the options to be changed?
is it possible to plot all design options in a single sheet---like a massing diagram for example?
Who does it work with groups? because i have alot of repeation in the facade design wall and windows. My workflow is "i am lazy". So as minimal for maximal. Its seems with groups is not working. This could be handy for renovation projects.
Good sir how to create a ridge capping for a roof
Hi Vishanand. Roof capping can be done in a number of ways. If it is one continuous element you could use a model in place family with an extrusion / sweep depending on the shape of the roof. You may also get away with a roof by extrusion with a buildup equal to the capping thickness if you required. If you are doing individual tiles for example, you could just create an independent generic model family of a ridge tile and array it down the length of the roof. There are many ways to approach this so it really depends on your roof construction and shape to best define the modelling method.
Niall
@@8020BIM Hello....can you pls make that tutorial videos..ie roof ridge. Thanks
Could you explain in what scenario you might need a second "Option Set"? Thanks again.
Hi again Charles,
You may need a second / third option set of there are other parts of the building are also subject to design options. For example, you could have a theoretical "extension A" where you have two design options within the first option set. Elsewhere on the building footprint you could have another extension, "Extension B" where you could have two design options within the second option set. Finally, you could have an internal retrofit, "Area C" which is subject to multiple design options, held within option set 3.
Apologies if this is a convoluted explanation but thought it best to run through a hypothetical example.
Let me know if you have any other queries at all Charles.
Niall
@@8020BIM nope, that was good. Thanks for clearing up revit. Been using your videos to help brush up for the Revit Certified Professional exam.
@@charlesball9522 that's great to hear Charles. All the best with it and let me know how you get on. As always, feel free to ask any questions on the content as you proceed.
Niall
@@charlesball9522 Hi Charles. I received a notification that you left a comment on my video today but I have not been able to locate it so I can help you out. Did you remove it? If not, feel free to reply to this message with the query again and I wil ldo my best to give you a hand.
Niall
@@8020BIM I removed it. It was a question about annotating the different options. When I dimensioned one, the units were correct, when I did the other it was different. Then I immediately realized it was set to a different style. Which is weird, since I didn't change it.
