How to Detail in Revit ... Like a Pro! (w/Brian Mackey)
I'm excited to welcome Brian Mackey ("The Revit Geek") to the show to talk about how to detail in Revit... like a Pro! Some of the topics we will touch on include:
Create intelligent details using Detail Items and tags, no text or lines
Link 2D details to Model components via Global Parameters
Link 2D details into multiple Revit files such that they all update
And, of course, we will be taking your questions along the way. Brian has a knack for including tons of great little tips and tricks when he demonstrates a topic... So, be sure to check this one out!
Sit back, relax, and lets geek out!
