@Vasil Kitanov I found 2 refit files from a huge refrigeration manufacturer that don't import correctly in v2019. Can you confirm there is a problem with 2D and 3D View import? DefaultType.rfa DefaultType.rfa

@Vasil Kitanov This was helpful, thank you. When I import as 2D and 3D Views, I am able to go to the sheet and see the 2D drawing. It comes in as an Annotation to a blank design layer that doesn't exist. I thought I couldn't edit it, when it turns out that if I choose to edit Annotation, the drawing is there. Lots of weird quirks, but it is good to know that I can make it work without 2017.

@JuanP That was interesting to hear. I had been unsuccessful at importing almost any kitchen equipment manufacturer Revit models. So I did some tests to see if I was doing something wrong and this is what I found: 1. If I import as 2D and 3D Views, there would be nothing there. 2. If I import as 3D Model View, it worked. 3. If I import as a Revit (Batch), there would be nothing there. At least I know that I don't have to rely on 2017 now, especially since Mac is going 64-bit only soon. It would be nice to have the 2D and 3D drawing - so hopefully someone can figure this out. I've included 3 files so you can text this for yourself. Thanks!

Revit import in 2019 still not working! Will 2017 be updated for Catalina support (64-bit)? 2017 was the last (only?) version that could import Revit files properly.

I find VW2017 was that only version that properly imported Revit files. If you have access to that, import there, save as VWX and then open up in VW2019.

@Vasil Kitanov Revit import still doesn't work after SP3. I tried to import this, and it didn't work. qf_advance_tabco_basics_bar_ice_bins_uni_serv_speed_bar_right.rfa

@SVA Architects I have the old late-2013 Mac Pro with AMD FirePro D300 2048 MB, 3.5 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon E5 and 64 GB 1866 MHz DDR3. Do you think these specs are still sufficient? This thing is 5-years old but still seems to work great...

So is it finally safe for me to upgrade to Mojave?

I FIGURED IT OUT! When you save the wall, you have to have Replace IFC Data checked. Thank you to @Pat Stanford and @Markvl for spending your time trying to help me.

@Markvl If I uncheck IfcWallStandardCase, the text in the Description box is deleted. If I uncheck Pset_WallCommon, the text in the Mark box is deleted. When I retype them, the items are checked again. Looking at IfcWallStandardCase > Description, it shows what I typed into the Description box. But that still isn't what appears on the schedule (most of the time). Also, if I don't summarize the Mark column, I find that the same wall can show multiple Descriptions. Some of which are the actual description I typed in!

Looking at it again 14, is correct, but 20 and 13 are not. So weird!

@Markvl This is what I mean - I don't know where those descriptions are coming from. They aren't from the data box from the Edit Wall Style window. See actual descriptions below.

I don't see the same thing for 01. 04, 07 and 05 descriptions in you screen shot don't match up either.

@Markvl Thanks! I just sent a Dropbox link in a private message. I get an error message when trying to upload it here.

That did it. Thank you very much! Sky
