Creating Links with Ideate BIMLink for Revit
The first time that Ideate BIMLink is used in a Revit project the list of Links will be empty. New Links can be added to the project by either creating them from scratch, creating them from an existing Schedule, by using the sample .link files provided, or by loading a .link file from a previous project.
To Create a new Link
To create a new Link from scratch, either:
- Click on the New... button on the main dialog.
- OR- - Click menu: Tools ►New Link…
This will launch the New Link Category Dialog.
To create a new Link from a Schedule
