Presentation, book and families

Since I already wrote about presentation sheets in my last blog post I will only write about families and color schemes in this post. Families Figure 1 - reference planes The planes of reference are those that delimit us the drawing and help us to place the different elements of the family. The two planes that define origin form the point of insertion of the family. It is important that the planes of origin be anchored so that they do not move. Reference planes can be dimensioned and parameterized to control the distances between them. The dimensions create parameters to previously decide the distances of the objects linked to the planes. Figure 2 - parameter When designing a family the start point is to create reference planes. These reference planes helps us placing the elements we are going to draw. The intersection of two planes will create an origin where you can easily anchor an element. What is great about Revit you can control the distance...
