Also, you probably should open up and explain a little bit the main functioning reason behind worksets (why it exists in the first place), which, in a gist, is to organize and control elements, views, etc. in a model to cater to what the user is currently doing (mainly for different disciplines).

Thanks again for this video. One question though, the worksets make a lot of sense but the detailed items does seem to ignore the worksets and do its own thing. For example in my case i created a furniture workset and the majority of the furniture are 3d items but I have a few 2d items as well to keep the file size down. I want to assigned them to the furniture-workset but oddly enough under workset it has the specific view name instead (and not any of the current 3 worksets) which seems to defeat this idea.

Really good stuff. I think the only thing that was maybe missed how to set up the work set/central file. I guess it’s a question of when? Do you work on a REVIT file up until a certain point and then enable work sets, or do you set it up day1 of the project ? I am a lone wolf so I’ve never used work sets with anyone, just wondering if I need to set up work sets even as I’m working alone. I guess it may depend on the scale of the project. Thanks again, I will be rewatching this as some point in the future.
@ArchitectureVanguard4 жыл бұрын
As a general rule, I almost always enable worksharing out of the gate. This would apply if it is just you working on a school project or if you are in an office and needing to work with others. There is no real downside to enabling worksharing, just know that this must be a central model. When first enabling worksharing, you will be prompted to name "Workset1" if you want as well as the shared levels and grids. This window will also ask if you want to move levels and grids to the shared levels and grids workset with the remaining elements going to Workset1. You only have to setup worksets if you need others to work in the same model as you at the same time or if you want to utilize worksets themselves. The scale of the project does not matter as much as if you need more than one person in the model and if you want to use worksets. I have used worksets with the tiniest of projects to the largest. The functionality does not change based on the scale. I do have a video on how to create a central model, although if I remember correctly, I may have left out the worksets parts. Enabling collaboration is required and give you the shared levels and grids and Workset1 by default. Hopefully that cleared some things up!

Ahh I see, that makes sense. If you are the only one working in the model then you do not necessaruly need to use worksharing. Also, if you are constantly uploading and downloading from Dropbox, then I would probably not recommend you enable worksharing. That is just because to do that you would need to create a central model and the constant uploads and dopwnloads from Dropbox would require you to remake the central model every time you download it. That would be a royal pain and I would not recommend that just because it's so tedious and things might more likely go wrong. Best of luck on the apartment project and let me know if there is anything I can help ya with!

@@ArchitectureVanguard well I guess the only thing I would need help with is how to make this work with Dropbox lol. I don't sent files via links for example, its just a synched folder that has all our work. On my PC it's c:\Dropbox\ but on someone else's, it's maybe D:\. I think there lies the problem, not the same pathing. I looked into this long ago but didn't end up trying due to time constraints. Apparently it's possible (with software) to path a folder as it's own letter (maybe r:\) anyways, I am rambling. It's just something I wanted to know if possible (via Dropbox) and how yo make that work and what to avoid to not have corruption in the central file. What you described of uploading and downloading a Central file was not what I had in mind when I was talking about Dropbox, but I can see if I did work that way, it would be pretty bad. Thanks again for the great video.
@ArchitectureVanguard4 жыл бұрын
I think I understand a little better now. From what it sounds like while you are working through Dropbox, you are not moving the file. If you want to utilize worksets and create a central model, the file location would need to stay in the same place. The second you move the file, you would need to remake the central model (you would not lose any workset data id you had to do this). I would create e test project with worksharing enabled and try the file on different computers in different locations. That said, you are fine working the way you have without a central model.

Great and informative video!! Thank you! Not sure if you are still active but I have a question. I work for an Architectural and Engineering firm where architectural and structural collaborate in the same office. I was wondering your thoughts on combining Architectural and Structural into the same model using worksets or should we just keep them separated like we have been and they can just link our architectural model. Also, I assume it would be useful to create more indepth worksets for each floor, windows, doors etc. for viewing purposes do you have any experience with this and pros or cons with doing so? Any information would be greatly appreciated!
@ArchitectureVanguard3 жыл бұрын
I would say that if you are in the same model and working with them directly in the same office all the time, that is fine. Just have to realize what goes into having multiple disciplines in the same model. I have heard of others in my previous office doing with with an outside consultant and it became a nightmare because of model elements being moved all the time. So nothing wrong but just more things that can go wrong.
@robertostolfa44533 жыл бұрын
When worksharing a model, how do you deal with Revit synching the active workset back to the central file? This has caused headaches for us when someone wants to work in a specific active workset but doesn't switch out of it before synching. Then the next person to open is unaware they are in a hidden workset.
@ArchitectureVanguard3 жыл бұрын
My best experience has been to have everyone work in one main workset and keep that as the active. It really is the best way to model. That means everyone can freely add elements to the model and know where they will "land" while still having the freedom to alter the model workset.

Hey Juan, here are a couple of things to check. Assuming making the central model went smoothly, then I would make sure that when you open the model to make sure that "create new local model" is selected. This should be done any time you open the model from any computer at this point. Second, make sure that before you sync that the location you are syncing to is the location of the central model. This would need to be the same and stay the same for any computer that access this model. This should be setup correctly by default. Hopefully that helps!

I was just wondering, how one can specify what goes into each workset. does that need to be discussed by a group in an office before the work begin on a project.

Anyone is able to create worksets and add elements into any work set they desire. You can always add any element after they are made into any workset in the properties of any element selected.

Hi, great video here about worksets. I hope my doubt isn't confusing. Basically I am trying to learn working in collaboration and to establish the same I am working with two users in my computer. first user or User 1 is assigned to work on the Architectural modelling where as second user or User 2 is suppose to work on structural modelling. However all the videos I have seen so far indicate towards linking the architectural model in a structural template. However I cannot do that if I have created a central file. I cannot connect my linked architectural file in structural to the central file because I have not created a local file in the first place. So I come up with a solution of creating a local file for structural in user 2 and use Structural views for the modelling of structural discipline of the project. Can you validate if what I have done is right? Is there a way to bring the linked file into collaboration with the central model?
@ArchitectureVanguard4 жыл бұрын
You have likely seen the structural portion linked in because it is done by a consultant or company. If you are working with a consultant or others not in your model, then you must use links. If you have everyone in the same model, then it would be best to split up the work with worksets like you are talking about. If you have a separate model then regardless if you have collaboration setup then you can link the file in. Just go to the add the separate Revit model in the Revit links. Let me know if I did not answer your question and I can do my best to try again. haha good luck!
