This is one of the most concise, easy to understand tutorials on Revit I've ever experienced. Just the right speed; easy to understand your voice; everything I need to do what I have to do. Thank you so much!!
Hi Cindy thanks so much for making this video! it's people like you making these contributions that really help beginners like me who would otherwise be clueless, much appreciated :)
Hi Cindy, Thank you very much for creating this video. It provides valuable modeling information. You do a remarkable job of explaining the detail aspect of the modeling processes.
Excellent! I didn't know I could do real drafting in Revit until I watched this. I didn't even know how to change my default "Units." Funny how being a seasoned AutoCAD user for decades does not help much for working in Revit.
Cindy... your instructions are very helpful.. Im a brand new revit user, self learning. how can I find out how to extrude a like your first example, but set an an angle... not horizontal or vertical. can you direct me to a solution?
You cannot extrude at an angle. You could do a sweep - have a shape follow a line you draw. Or you can do a blend - for example you can place a square at the base and a square for the top two feet apart and they would blend at an angle - hope that helps. - good luck!
I want to place a special fascia onto a roof edge. I have created a sweep (thank you very much) but I can't figure out how to apply it to the edge, It seems like it should go in as a fascia, but I can't seem to make a 'fascia' model, just a generic model. or I should??????
You could use the point cloud to create a mass and then apply a surface to the mass - a material with some thickness. This is the only way you can create forms that have any kind of Helix properties - like a water slide would. - So using a Mass Family
Been trying to create a 3/4 radius the follows path of rectangular sink with 3/4 radius corners but my revit will not make it. I tried creating a profile.
if the path has 3/4 radius and 3/4 corners Revit thinks the sweep will run into itself so it will not make it - if you try making the corners larger it will work
I'm coppy from www.Autodesk revit website can u show video how to do = " Cutting with voids in families when loaded " You can cut objects in a project when a family with unattached voids is loaded. Objects that can be cut include: Walls, Floors, Roofs, Ceilings, and Structural Framing, Structural Columns, Structural Foundations, and Generic Models. To enable this, open the Revit family with unattached voids and click Create tab Properties panel Family Category and Parameters. In the Family Category and Parameters dialog Select Cut With Voids when Loaded and click OK. Load the family into the project and place it. Click Modify tabGeometry panelCut drop-down (Cut Geometry). Select the object to be cut. Select the instance with which to cut. Note: If the instance has several unattached voids, all of them will participate in cutting.
souki kmnv I sent you a screen shot in google hang out of what you need to change in the family for it to void in the project. Just create a swept blend void or whatever kind of void you want to create, under the family parameters - click on the "cuts with voids" load into the project and place the component like normal then on the modify panel select "cut" click on the thing you want to cut and then the void you want to cut with. I will try to make a video - but hopefully this helps in the meantime.

As a self-taught Revit user, I have watched many, many instructional videos. Yours has by far been one of the best. Thank you so much!

Great Video Cindy, Simple and Succinct. Loved it. Looking forward for more.
Excellent tutorial. I consider myself an experienced user and I learned a few things from this. Thank you.
Very nice video!!!, thanks for being very thorough, yet brief with each of these methods, now to model a car!
youre an absolute legend my friend!
teaching skill is goood!!!! this video is very use full for me!!! thank you so much dear!

Thanks you, your video well explained, well-paced and clear and not dull!
Wow! I wish i'd found this video first. you rock

that's what i really wanted to know, thank you so much.
you're welcome!
Wonderful way of explaining
yeahh!!! thank you so much for your explaination!!!
Nice video thanks
This was very helpful. Thanks!
Thanks for the video. I can’t figure out why my revolve item comes in the drawing at an angle I don’t want. Then I can rotate it the way I need.
You should create it in the direction you want - so if the item is upright, when creating it, use an elevation view (front, back etc.)
Contudo agradeço a iniciativa e bons vídeos
Awesome tutorial :)
can you cut a swept blend with a curved line?
AWESOME VIDEO. THANKS AND I AM KEEN TO LEARN ABOUT PARAMETRIC FAMLIES.
great video lady.....
Great tutorial, Thanks!
Thank you Cindy
Brilliant!
Thank you Cindy, this was usefull !
TQ FOR YOUR TUTORIAL VIDEO VERY USEFULL FOR ME
thank you. very informative clear explanations. greate.
Thanks for video.

Can you use a wall sweep and create a profile and you would use to sweep along the edge?
How about a water slide at a water fun park.......possible to do this from a point cloud and then use your methods?
You could use the point cloud to create a mass and then apply a surface to the mass - a material with some thickness. This is the only way you can create forms that have any kind of Helix properties - like a water slide would. - So using a Mass Family
THANKS ILL GIVE IT A GO
Is it possible to modify the sweep path once created?
Yes - just select the sweep and redraw whichever item you need to change - you can even stretch the path in place if you just need to go a bit longer
Cindy would you explain how could I do that without saving the shape in rotate tool. I tried though but failed.
thanks Cindy God Bless : )
hi cindy nice video, can u plz creat a building using massing and blend command
Been trying to create a 3/4 radius the follows path of rectangular sink with 3/4 radius corners but my revit will not make it. I tried creating a profile.
if the path has 3/4 radius and 3/4 corners Revit thinks the sweep will run into itself so it will not make it - if you try making the corners larger it will work
@@ckruse thank you. I'm trying to help the company incorporate our table designs into revit.
@@ckruse found a solution that'll work
@@Ramseye123 Do you work for a furniture manufacturer?
@@ckruse yes.
Thank you so much. But I want this work in default file insted of in family
*I don't even know how to get to that menu that shows the Sweep icon.*
Thank Yiu
in structure steel connection the connector is very limited . do you know how to created connector or to get anywhere by download the connector
is it possible to create both shapes at the same time and revolve?
Arsalan Bashir you can create more than one shape and revolve it at the same time
9 yrs..................
thank you so much...
thank u very very much
keep it up
:)))))
THANKS SO MUCH
Thanks for the video. Please where can I download the family templates?
They are installed with revit, if they are not there when you go to new family, you should reinstall revit
Thanku
thanks but where is the sweep example ??
+MrBonolo 7:13
nice tutorials
Thanks Friend......
Thx
thak alot but i want to know how to void farm on sweep blend by load profile family is hard to cut by void can u show new video thank again
Do you want to be able to create a void swept blend that voids what type of form? like an extrusion or...?
thank you
I'm coppy from www.Autodesk revit website can u show video how to do
