What are the best settings for importing a Revit model into a Vectorworks space?
I currently do the following:
1) Create New Drawing
2) Import RVT with the following settings:
3) Wait 45 minutes - 1 Hour for Import
4) Spend 1-2 Hours cleaning up the RVT model, as all the layers/settings from Revit are missing (EXG, Demo, Etc is retained/lost based on no apparent setting).
Are there optimal settings for the import process? I was able to get a cleaner import by getting a Revit Trial and ETransmitting only the 3D model work for import, but I don't feel that I can ask the architect to spend time cleaning up their Revit model for this purpose. I am hoping that There is an issue with how I am importing and not that this is just how the process will work every time.
