MBA-096 Subject: Exporting to DWG with Revit 2011 MBA Case

In a previous post (MBA-094) commented that we felt much better Revit export to DWG. Well actually this version has taken a step superlative in terms of fidelity of the "image" of our work in AutoCAD Revit. We have not lost information found in the transfer, as was the case hatched disappearing into the DWG. Neither the masks appear as solid black and hatched in AutoCAD, etc.

We would comment as follows:

• The bounded is more faithful to the original. Fixed angular dimensions in AutoCAD drew a bow by exterior angle, and all style parameters bounded transfer well, including prefixes / suffixes or book value alternatives to the altitude. The only flaw is the style of text. Revit exports all as style "Standard" with TXT source. The simplest solution is to redefine the style standard AutoCAD to use the font.

• have not solved the problems of the export of Dependent Views . In general, Revit exports viewport displaced and, sometimes, out of phase with each other. The solution is to export we have discoursed so that Revit as XRefs generate views. Then join them in AutoCAD ( Bind XRefs> Insert ) to become easier blocks moved as a whole.

• The problem of the widening in AutoCAD texts masks defined as opaque. This is a defect not of AutoCAD and Revit, because the widening minimum is greater than that used Revit and, consequently, an opaque white rectangle and cut lines of the drawing. Solution: Revit resign and use transparent text only.

• We use certificates of views with us once subrayado.Tal occurs only us, but we could not prevent Revit put an underline in the same layer as the export to Viewports DWG. Consequently, when we turn off the layer of Viewports in AutoCAD (or put it to "no" plot ") also underscore the lines disappear. The solution, of course, is to change these lines manually layer in AutoCAD, before freezing the Viewports layer.

Overall, except for these minor problems (which still require hours of post editing AutoCAD export) the DWG export has significantly improved with Revit 2011. But we insist, Autodesk must continue to improve this crucial aspect of compatibility with its own standard, DWG, inevitably dominates the market and that is the main obstacle facing Revit to prevail as a platform for professional work.
