Exporting Details

[janunson]

I'm having trouble exporting details from Revit to AutoCAD. I have Revit 7.1, AutoCAD 2005. I export the detail and while the base model looks OK, but all the detail componants are shifted out of place, and the level heads. It happens if i export from the view, OR from the sheet.

also, It attaches all the files attached to the revit file even if they're different views or set to invisible.

Am i doing this wrong? I've attached the DWG so you can see what happens...

TIA.

Anyone have any ideas here? what's going on?

Please post Revit model too, or send both to support.

I will send both to support, can't post the revit file because this is an active project, and a 40 MB file.

Hi janunson,

I have the exact same issue. It seems to be a problem when the section view is broken into multiple views. Any luck on finding a workaround/resolving this issue?

Thanks,

[janunson]

No, no workaround found. I haven't been able to send the file to support because for some reason the page kicks me off or won't accept my login. I've given up on it; the deadline passed.

Shucks.

I'll look into it through my supplier and post if I find anything at all.

We’re experiencing the same problem with Revit Building 8 Beta and Acad 2005.

Hi everyone

Been using Revit for a few months now and have just came across the identical problem when exporting to dwg

Was wondering if you guys have have ever received any feedback on the issue?

Ciao

Actually, exporting the same stuff from Revit Building 8, Build 20050428_2300 into AutoCAD 2006, it comes out almost right., just a few things that need trimming or adjusting. For a dwg that prints to match the RVT however, i'm finding i actually get best results to print to postscript, open in Illustrator, and export to DWG. You loose layers but retain weights and don't have to deal w/ all the solid hatches that come out of the revit export.

Have you tried exporting as a .dxf? I seem to remeber a similar problem back in 6 and we found that if we exported as a .dxf it didn't repeat.

If you experience exporting issues using 8.0 shipping version please either post simplified Revit model here, or contact support. Thanks.
