Willingness to recreate the examples before checking the sample files

Description

Creating documentation in Revit can be a real headache. From manually creating views to renaming parameters, it's a time-consuming process that demotivates even the most skilled professionals. But we have a solution!With Dynamo, you can automate these tasks exactly the way your company needs, without relying on expensive plugins. And here's the best part – no extensive coding knowledge required! Batch renaming, batch duplicating views, setting parameters – all of it and much more, automated with Dynamo.Imagine saving 40 to 90 percent of your time, depending on your company's specifics. No more human errors, just consistent, efficient processes. This means more time for architects and engineers to focus on the truly important aspects of their work – the creative and strategic thinking.In this course, we're diving deep into different ways of creating and renaming views, utilizing Dynamo Player and custom user interface for optimal efficiency. Plus, we'll show you how to automatically set parameters like mirrored status, door hinge directions, and elements' affiliation with areas and scope boxes.The examples in this course are real-world examples covering the needs for multi storey apartment or office buildings, that you can directly apply. You will get the knowledge to modify them to your own needs and create new automations for your projects.This course requires previous experience with Revit and Dynamo. Ideally you’d have passed the Dynamo from zero to hero course, available here on Udemy.The course is delivered in many examples with the idea that the student follows along. Exercise files are provided with almost every lecture.Ideally, every lecture should be viewed as an assignment. Don't go to the next one until you have tried yourself what is shown. That way you can keep up with the new information and not get overwhelmed.We're taking a practical approach - the examples given are parts of scripts that are currently used in companies and save them a lot of time. Your instructor:has 13 years of daily experience using Revit,has 10 years of experience using Dynamo and Python and currentlydevelops plugins using the Revit API. He has worked in a range of projects from apartment buildings to airports and infrastructure. His scripts are used in multiple major architectural and engineering companies around the world. By the end of the course, you will be able to code your own Python Nodes and use the Revit API. You will have a better knowledge of how Revit works internally and how you can automate its processes. The course is intense, but you're covered. You can ask questions here on Udemy or in our special Facebook group
