Family and parts - creation of an internal dataset with internal 2D / 3D models attachment

Hi 

is there a step by step process for the creation of family and parts with associated graphical data. e.g 2D and 3D models 

YouTube doesn't seem to have anything in this so reaching out

kind regards

  • Yes.

    Create 3d drawing

    Create plan and model

    Make sure you have good origin

    Repeat over and over next cell side by side

    Example.  I have a 3d dgn file with all my plumbing cells

    Each object created starts with  line that helps identify where the origin will be.

    Then in many cases I build, borrow and modify and create a 3d object

    This I save as 2d to create A plan

    This I import back into this plan and place it on the ground level with the 3d model.

    I now have a 100 or so cells.

    Toilets different kinds and arrangements.  For example a std handicapped restroom with all 2d and 3d data minus dim.

    Now this file is easy to update and add and grow

    And as I make a 2d/3d model I create the cell and add I to the respective library.

    Toilets, sinks, tubs, showers. Kitchen sinks, etc
