View Full Version : 2013 Multiple insert views from file(s)

Hello all,

Does anyone know a way to insert views from several different .rvt files all at once? We are cleaning out our details library and I got a request to be able to load all the casework sections onto one sheet so they could be compared side-by-side.

We keep each of our standard details as a separate .rvt file using "save view to new file". This usually helps keep things simple so if you want a particular type of cabinet for a project you can find it by filename rather than opening one rvt file called "casework" and hunting down the views within the project browser. The downside is that if you want to grab several views you have to load each one at a time.

Normally that isn't a problem unless you want to load ALL the details at once.... http://i1.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/187/320/6a1.png

Any thoughts?

Cad files, yes; Revit files I don't think so, since revit needs to open each file before it can find the view names it needs.
