To further assist with the markup and review process, there is a sheet compare functionality which allows you to compare drawings between two DWF files.īut what about symbols? Most engineers I’ve spoken to say that they can’t give up Bluebeam because “it has symbols”. In addition to the usual suite of 2D markup and measurement tools, there are a series of handy tools that can be used in 3D views so you can take sections through the model assist in the markup process. Markup and Measure Toolsĭesign Review includes all the makrup and measurement tools that you need to get the job done.

These tabs can be pinned or set to auto-hide depending on your preference. The right-hand side of the screen provides you with handy tabulated information regarding the open sheet or view.

There are also additional tabs that allow you to review sheets and views in a list mode, list your markups and also and exported model views. On opening the file you’re presented with a series of thumbnails on the left hand side of the screen which represent each of the drawing sheets and views exported from the model.

There are additional options that can be set and applied to the DWF export it’s always great to have a bit of extra metadata within your files, but only fill out if required.

Just like using the default printing or DWG interfaces, select the views and sheets that you want to export We’re also using Revit 2019 in this example, if you’re using a previous version of Revit you need to click on the Application Menu (the big R) rather than the file menu. In this example we will be using the trusty rac_basic_sample_project.rvt

That’s right, DWF files are used for more than just CostX. To get started, we need to export a DWF from Revit.
