@NVIDIAGeForce GeForce Season. Do I need a reason.

@nicocatellier Explode to polylines usually. Purge. Put Cutt lines on Lay 0. Background lines on new Lay 1. Delete all subjective non useful lines. Control Shift C to copy lines you want from a suitable base point. Paste into blank dwg file. Save. Import into detail item origin to origin. Done!

@nicocatellier @bird_tools RTV. Plus the best for exporting dwgs en masse I'm aware of.

@Twiceroadsfool I wonder will they ever make Railings easier to do detailed stuff!

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@Twiceroadsfool Just wondering, do you typically do a summary text on how complex families work for future users that might want to edit them?

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@Studio_Bim Far from a guru, but BIMvision is for me the best free one I could find.

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@JodyBrownArch Clunky and showing its age, but still a beast, that can do an unbelievable amount of stuff, while simultaneously infuriating most AEC professionals!

@Studio_Bim pyRevit defo!

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@TravisUsesRevit Even in Legends?

@Cobylefko Bourne Hall Library in Ewell. The space saucer library!

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@TechAmazing Yes, back in the day. But only in the car!

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@Kai61605309 @_TheDanWarren Excellent article. Sums it up!

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@NigelPDavies Indeed. Feels very early 2010s. But still what everyone seems to expect when you need to do some clash detection!

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@RudyCerda Since having to load Total Recall on a tape on the Comadore 64!

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@ikeough

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@agviegasBIM @DynamoBIM @threejs Or even better an open version of Revit(Although probably a mountain of development for something like that)

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@heritage_surv Nice. When and where will it be available for purchase?

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@jmvanlith Very interesting. Wondering would it be possible to generate more detailed info such drainage points, partition types and thicknesses, pattressing locations, set-out dims etc. in the future? Or am I asking too much. Plus wondering if my day job is safe!!

[Colm Nolan @colm_nolan]

@dayle_design Before a mitre say I would advice getting a circular saw. Great for those big sheets of timber. Plus more manly!
