Hey Ryan! Thank you for the video. I would like to learn more about the material schedule for walls, floors, and ceilings. Hopefully, you can create a video about it. Keep up the great job! The keynotes video helped me a lot!!!!
Abraham Creation thank you so much for your feed back, I am currently working on a video which will be more towards starting a project. I will look into these items and do my best to get you what you need 🙏 in the next few videos.
Hey Ryan, that was a great FCU detail you had shown there. Just out of curiosity, can we use any out of the box Systems tools like Ducts, Diffusers, etc. for our details. In an attempt to show a Flex duct connection detail, I wasn't able to place the Flex Duct in a Drafting View and was wondering if there's a work around? Thank you so much man, Love your content.
Yes the best work around, although a bit of a pain, anything in Revit can be exported to CAD, including but not limited to, 3D and section views. I would take a good section shot or 3D view of my flex duct, then export it to CAD. I would then clean up the view a bit in CAD, then re insert into a Drafting view in Revit, add anytext you need to the drafting view, and you have now created an editable detail based off your real model. Let me know if this helps Kushal
So basically one still has to create a Mock Project, where all the drafting views reside, call the project a suitable name and save it somewhere accessible from where you can drag drafting views for use into new projects.
Great tips and idea but I am curious, we have created a library in 2019. What can we do if we need to import the details in 2020 or 2021? It actually upgrade the master detail to 2020 or 2021.
Always save a copy, but yes simply open it in the new version and let it update and save in that version. I recommend keeping a year or two back just incase those clients use older versions of revit. let me know if i can help you out more. I have another video dropping soon.
I'm in the process of also creating a project to house all of our drafting view details, but the list is getting long. I think there is a way to organize then in the browser with parameters?
Thanx, Ryan. it was helpful.

Revit Ryan Thanks for replying. I am looking forward to the next videos. Also, the way you explain things is very clear. I like that! 👍

Is there a crop region for the drafting view?
Thank you
