I started 2010, (the year not the Revit version) with changing what I call my Revit Review's. A weekly Tips & Tricks session I do for in-house staff. I was hoping to blog about it often but I obviously didn't. Now I'd like to catch you up.
This is the format. Once a week for 30 minutes, I show how to use one tool, in about 15 minutes, and questions and closing comments the last 15 minutes. The reason for that format, is I hoped people would go back and try what we discussed, they have a week to play with it and come back with questions. The response wasn't as enthusiastic, but I can't expect everyone to like Revit as much as I do.

January: I started from the beginning. Placing Walls, Doors and Windows. I know more than one tool, but I think these can all go together. Nothing complicated, just how to place a wall, change the type, and important to me, location line. Based on the questions asked, I did learn something new, a window placed next to a door going through it will generate a warning, keyword phrase here "next to" but doing the same above a door, no warning; I found that intersting. I still haven't asked Revit Guru's why this is, but I will!
Until next time!
