Ideate ViewCreator for Revit is designed to automate the batch-creation of new Revit views to match your BIM naming and view standards. In this example we will review the steps required to make scaled plan views, which can be radically simplified by using Ideate ViewCreator from IdeateApps for Revit. A series of smaller-scaled plan views may often be necessary for the purposes of presentations or code review. In the example below we will duplicate three floor plan views and while renaming them and adjusting the view scale from 100 to 200.
Before beginning this exercise, open the Revit sample file called rac_advanced_sample_project.rvt. This file can be typically found at C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit [version]\Samples.
The rule used in this example builds the new view names based on the original view name plus a dash and then the new view’s scale. Learn how to customize rules: Customizing Ideate ViewCreator for Revit
