Ideate BIMLinkHow to...Create NEW Elements
  • Create New Areas

    • Create New Revit Area Elements with Ideate BIMLink

    Ideate BIMLink can create new unplaced Revit Areas.  In order to define an Area element Revit requires that an Area Scheme be specified first.  For this reason it is imperative that the Area link definition include a Filter for the Area Scheme: Name property. Read Edit Revit Filters Tab with Ideate BIMLink 

    The easiest way to create new unplaced Areas is to create a new link that is defined by the existing Area schedule.  This will ensure that the caveats noted above are true.

    NOTE:  The Sample Link called "Areas-Create_NEW" is setup with a filter for the Area Scheme called "Gross Building", as an example.  When this link is used to create new Areas they will be automatically assigned to the Gross Building Area Scheme because of this filter.
