The Easy Way to Find and Place Revit Families and Views!
Family and View Studio for Revit
You didn’t get into this career because you wanted to grope around trying to find stuff.
Have you ever run into any of the following in Revit?
When needing to find one particular family or view out of hundreds, sometimes you are not sure what to try first.
You spend too much time searching and the results are
often disappointing
You’re struggling with how limited Revit’s search capabilities are.
You have to exit the search function to verify that you’ve selected the correct family.
You wish you didn’t have to look for a Revit® file (library) that might contain the view you need, only to be forced to browse through them all in hopes you find it.
You wish you could search for — and see a list of — all the families or views that match your search.
You wish you could identify families with custom tags.
You wish you could choose your own thumbnail for a family.
You have to stop and look at every matching family in Revit’s Project Browser, wasting a lot of time.
You wish you could search for and list only the families or views that match your search.
You wish you could easily search for and find the right families or views that are stored in other projects.
You wish you could search for — and see — large thumbnails of all the families or views that match your search.
