Material Library files

[ejburrell67787]

Is there an easy way or importing / exporting materials library files? (*.mlib)

Upgrading a project from 6.0 into 6.1, I ended up copying the User.mlib from one directory to another manually so I could keep the materials in place... is this the only way?

Cheers, Elrond

yeah, from what I've found this is the only way. Since Revit doesnt perform an "upgrade" and is a new install, any setting that you had in your previous version will have to be copied over. From materials to hotkeys.

I suppose I could be wrong, but from what I have stored in my head, thats all I know.

When you upgrade, make a copy of the Revit.ini file and the Keyboardshortcuts.txt file. After installing, put these files in the Programs>Autodesk Revit *.*>Program file and you'll have of your old settings back.
