hi, thanks for your essential tutorials, I had a question. I already installed navisworks but I can't see it in adds in in revit. How can I add that? thanks in advance
thanks Louie. Revit projects can embed external files as links. When this check box is selected, linked RVT files will be included in the exported NWC file. By default, this check box is clear. Note: Only linked RVT files can be exported; linked dwgs and any other file formats are not supported.
try this sir, ### 1. Check Export Settings in Revit Ensure that the export settings in Revit are correctly configured: - **Shared Parameters**: Make sure that all shared parameters are included in the export. Check if the shared parameters are properly defined and linked in Revit. - **Element Properties**: Verify that the element properties you want to export are selected in the export settings. ### 2. Use the Navisworks Exporter Plugin Ensure you are using the latest version of the Navisworks Exporter Plugin for Revit: - **Install or Update Plugin**: Make sure you have the latest Navisworks Exporter Plugin installed. This plugin helps in properly exporting Revit files to Navisworks. - **Exporter Settings**: Open the Exporter settings in Revit (`Add-Ins` > `External Tools` > `Navisworks 20xx Exporter`) and check the settings to include all necessary parameters. ### 3. Mapping Parameters Parameters in Revit might need to be mapped correctly to ensure they appear in Navisworks: - **Parameter Mapping**: Check if the parameters are correctly mapped in the Navisworks Exporter settings. You can map parameters from Revit to Navisworks to ensure they are included in the export. ### 4. Verify Parameter Visibility Ensure that the parameters are visible and not hidden or filtered out: - **View Templates**: Check the view templates in Revit to ensure the parameters are visible in the views being exported. - **Parameter Visibility**: Ensure that the parameters are not hidden in Revit’s properties palette. ### 5. Export File Type Ensure you are using the correct file type for export: - **NWC vs. NWD**: Typically, exporting to NWC (Navisworks Cache) files includes more detailed information compared to NWD (Navisworks Document) files. Try exporting to NWC and see if the parameters are retained. ### 6. Troubleshoot Specific Parameters If specific parameters are missing, investigate those parameters individually: - **Custom Parameters**: Check if custom parameters are set up correctly in Revit. - **Parameter Types**: Verify that the parameter types (e.g., text, number, etc.) are compatible with Navisworks. ### 7. Use Property Sets in Navisworks In Navisworks, you can create and manage property sets to include specific parameters: - **Property Sets**: In Navisworks, you can create property sets that group certain parameters together. Ensure that the property sets are configured to include the parameters you need. ### 8. Documentation and Community Resources Refer to Autodesk’s documentation and community forums for specific issues: - **Autodesk Knowledge Network**: Check for articles and guides related to exporting from Revit to Navisworks. - **Forums**: Participate in forums like the Autodesk Community or Revit and Navisworks user groups to get insights and solutions from other users. ### Example Workflow 1. **Update Navisworks Exporter Plugin**: Make sure you have the latest plugin installed. 2. **Configure Export Settings**: Open Revit, go to `Add-Ins` > `External Tools` > `Navisworks 20xx Exporter`, and configure the settings to include all required parameters. 3. **Export to NWC**: Export your Revit model to an NWC file. 4. **Open in Navisworks**: Open the NWC file in Navisworks and check if the parameters are present.
keep up the good work, teacher richer, back to basic education ulit
salamat sa suporta.
very nice explanation
youre welcome sir.
hI Thanks for the turorials, can you teach please export from navisworks to autocad.
hi Domel, you can only export navisworks to DWF/x and FBX file formats.
thanks for these tutorials. you are awesome in teaching
Thanks Rajat for watching.

### 3. Mapping Parameters
Parameters in Revit might need to be mapped correctly to ensure they appear in Navisworks:
- **Parameter Mapping**: Check if the parameters are correctly mapped in the Navisworks Exporter settings. You can map parameters from Revit to Navisworks to ensure they are included in the export.
### 4. Verify Parameter Visibility
Ensure that the parameters are visible and not hidden or filtered out:
- **View Templates**: Check the view templates in Revit to ensure the parameters are visible in the views being exported.
- **Parameter Visibility**: Ensure that the parameters are not hidden in Revit’s properties palette.

### 8. Documentation and Community Resources
Refer to Autodesk’s documentation and community forums for specific issues:
- **Autodesk Knowledge Network**: Check for articles and guides related to exporting from Revit to Navisworks.
- **Forums**: Participate in forums like the Autodesk Community or Revit and Navisworks user groups to get insights and solutions from other users.
### Example Workflow
1. **Update Navisworks Exporter Plugin**: Make sure you have the latest plugin installed.
2. **Configure Export Settings**: Open Revit, go to `Add-Ins` > `External Tools` > `Navisworks 20xx Exporter`, and configure the settings to include all required parameters.
