You've been using AutoCAD software to produce your drawings for some time, and you have a huge library of details. Now that you're moving to Revit software, what happens to all these details? You don't want to just trash them, and you don't want to recreate them in Revit. In this class, we'll look at the next step in your transition to Revit. We'll see how you can still use those details right in your Revit projects straight from AutoCAD. We'll explore how we can bring those existing details into Revit and have them be referenced correctly in our projects as if they were created there. We'll even look (when you have time) at how to Revit-ize your AutoCAD details to start building a true Revit detail library. So, if not being able to use your details is holding you back from switching to Revit—or you're just not sure how to do it—don't let that stop you. You don't have to throw them out—they're still good.
