Introduction to Import & Link Manager from the BIM Manager Suite
Revit® has passable tools for managing linked files, but they could be easier to use. Additionally, there are no tools to manage or discover the imports that make their way into our design models. The Import & Link Manager tool handles both of these issues, making the correction of imports and management of links far easier. Join us as we explore this toolset, so you can more efficiently manage your models.
Learning Objectives:
- Accessing Import & Link Manager
- Introduction to the user Interface
- Managing Imported and linked content
- How to obtain the suite

Introduction to Revision Manager from the BIM Project Suite™
The revision system in Revit® can work fairly well when revision clouds are used. However, if you try to associate a revision to a sheet or series of sheets without the existence revision clouds, things become tedious. Also, Revit doesn’t natively let you get a report of all revisions on all sheets. This webinar will demonstrate how revisions can be more efficiently managed in a Revit project, how revisions can be represented efficiently on a cover sheet and how revision reports can be obtained by using the Revision Manager tool from the BIM Project Suite.
Learning Objectives:
- Accessing Revision Manager
- Introduction to the user interface
- Easily update sheet revisions
- How to obtain the suite

Introduction to Detail Link from the BIM Project Suite
All too frequently we still get drawings from manufacturers in DWG or DGN format. These may need to be linked to drafting views in our Revit project models. Or, perhaps your firm is in the process of migrating your standards from AutoCAD into Revit, and there are many details that need to be ‘Revitized’. Both of these processes are time consuming, and frequently done in different ways by different people. Standardizing and automating this process can save days of frustration. This webinar will demonstrate how this free tool on the BIM Project Suite can eliminate this very manual linking process.
