Re: v8i Associated dims possible across dynamic views

Ah... I missed that PDF the first time around, and yes, it does help clarify your workflow. What you essentially have is geometry existing in file A, that is then referenced into the design model of file B, dimensions added there, and then that referenced…

V8i - reading DWG file wth REVIT data -
Greg Hruby
Can V8i users simply open DWG files with Revit data and read it in the DWG file? It isn't necessary to edit or modify the Revit data in the DWG and it isn't necessary to transfer it to a DGN file. Thanks. Greg

Re: Bentley Architectural and Structural working together?
