Prospect supports linked Revit files and will include them if they are part of the Revit 3D view, these will be available to easily isolate/review in VR with the visibility settings feature. Use the inspect element tool to access this BIM metadata for any geometry within your project.
Prospect uses the American Institute of Architects Standard to map Revit Categories and Subcategories DWG export layers.Īll type and instance properties available within Revit are accessible in VR. Mix and match Visibility Settings between geometry within the following: With files exported with Prospect version 2.11 or newer, users have a high degree of control and reconfigurability more in line with how geometry is thought of and managed within Revit. Prospect supports a level of detail in-between "Medium" and "Fine" and brings in materials similar to how they would appear in the "Realistic" setting. To see an accurate preview of how your materials will appear in IrisVR, open up the Revit Material Browser and navigate to the "Appearance" tab. Overrides from V/G menu are not currently supported, though categories hidden in V/G will be respected. Settings Not Supported: reflectivity, self-illumination, bump-maps, and relief patterns. Manage tab > Materials > Select desired material > Graphics tab > Shading dropbox > Check "Use Render Appearance".For physically based materials from Revit 2019+ to be exported, check:.Settings Supported: diffuse color, diffuse texture, image fade, transparency, and tint of Autodesk Materials, as well as physically based materials introduced with Revit 2019. If you do not wish for files to be updated, you may turn off the feature in your Settings section toward the top right corner of the Prospect Library under the "File Processing" section. Revit files will be updated if the file and 3D View selected before export match an existing file in the Project. When exporting an updated file, be sure to save the file to the same Project in your Prospect Library.

Note: File updating is only available for files imported using version 2.12* or newer.įile updating allows you to update the existing file in your Prospect library with the latest geometry from your source model while bringing along any issues, annotations, and photos created in Prospect previously.
