Family Type Manager - Revit International Master Catalogs



Published
BIModular Family Type Manager allows you to easily create all product possibilities for Revit Families, in any language, any Revit unit of measure, and for the first time use Master Catalogs to keep all of your international and historical family data in one file.

This video shows how a manufacturer can create a single parametric metal clip in Revit. Use Type Builder to create all 420 variations in seconds with rules based naming, descriptions and manufacturer information.

Type Catalogs are then created from for imperial and metric and in Chinese, Thai, French, and English.
By far Family Type Manager is the fastest and easiest way to create and manage family content.
