Importance of being able to export from Revit to Navisworks.

A brief overview of Revit and Navisworks.But my model was 2D lines.ĪNY thoughts, ANY idea's, any random ramblings will be accepted here. Three of those disciplines mentioned earlier are using MEP2012 and as I mentioned, their models appeared as they should. I am grasping at straws here as I have read through my books and have searched through the Revit settings for something, anything that would help with this, but I can't find a thing or a reason for my model to not show up correctly in Navisworks. Perhaps I am misunderstanding the need of materials. The Detail Level view mode is view specific and shouldn't affect the model at all.Ĭould Materials have something to do with this? I have left the materials as default as I haven't had a need to make it look pretty. Could this have anything to do with bringing a model into Navisworks? Could the BIM guy at the GC's office be bringing the model in incorrectly or in a Coarse or Medium mode? I wouldn't think so as all the other disciplines models appeared to be just fine, but I don't know. Is there something I need to adjust or set in my model to make it appear properly? Let me ask this When I create a plan of a mechanical room, when the model is viewed in Coarse or Medium, I see 2D lines, when viewed in Fine, I see the true aspect of a pipe. I don't know why can someone shed some light on this for me? Our meeting was online so we saw the entire project on GoToMeeting. The items I modeled myself appeared as they should, but the default piping was 2D linework and didn't reflect the 12' diameter pipe I was using (using MEP2012). We had a clash detection meeting the other day and everybody's (six disciplines) model looked like it should, except mine. I don't have Navisworks so I can't duplicate this problem I am having, but my model - according to the General Contractor - is showing up as 2D lines when it is brought into Navisworks. I am in need of some assistance regarding Navisworks and in my searching have discovered this forum.
