Export Pen Set for Revit Autodesk

Hi,

We are currently collaborating with engineers but they use Revit for their BIM model and documentation.

Is there a way to share our pen set attributes or export them for Revit?

I appreciate all the help I can get.


Regards,

To answer this question I actually installed Revit. What I see there - Revit does not have pen sets. All colours set manually by RGB or PANTONE. The system there is different. You just choose pen colour for your element. Also you can override colour if you want. But you cannot switch between pen sets - like in ArchiCAD, as in Revit there is no such a things like pen number. Also Revit doesn't have layers (where layers can have different colours like in AutoCAD).

Not sure, but you could try exporting through IFC instead. it sometimes works better than using archicad’s RVT export.
