    Default Revit Export CAD options

    I was wondering if there was a way to make my exported CAD files have "blocks" instead of Xref's. This causes trouble because i then have to go into every file and bind everything, it is fine if i had 5-10 files but instead i have 60+. I would be very grateful if someone could help me out. Thanks in advance.



    i found the solution to my problem.

    All depends on what you want.
    If you don't care if you're links have Individual layers that you can control after the fact, then no worries and just don't check the box to convert linked files as xrefs.
    If you need that function you'll need a 2 step process.
    Export with Xrefs and then write a script to bind as a bind.
    I'd use Script-Pro myself.
    Option B would be to use the Action Recorder inside Autocad and then Play it back, but you'll have to do that on a file by file basis.
