You might want to place it at the ceiling level, somewhere in the 'centre' of the room, for the zooming and cutting described below. Place a family instance with some geometry inside each room.The simplest approach to zoom to a Revit room in the Forge viewer seems to be the following: Several participant interested in Revit models ran into this issue, and various solutions were implemented. In September last year by Jaroslav's colleague Vitezslav Peka:

One approach to automatically navigate to a specific room was implemented at Automatically Navigating to a Specific Room You can easily implement your own extensions to retrieve, display and interact with the room data in any way you like. It is not immediately accessible through the user interface, since there is no geometry associated with it.Ī room is a void, and the viewer is mainly focused on displaying (non-void) geometrical objects. If you know the room element id, you can retrieve it from the translated viewer data. However, their other information, attributes and parameters are all present in the translated model. The Forge viewer displays geometrical objects.īy default, the rooms in a Revit model do not generate any geometry. On handling Revit rooms that might be worth mentioning first. Jaroslav very kindly shared his hard-won experience and algorithm how to highlight a specific Room in the Forge viewer. This year all proceed go to the non-profit CODAME ART+TECH project.Īt the recent Barcelona Forge Accelerator, I talked with Jaroslav Daníček

Not to forget the 3D Web Fest on June 15, in parallel with Forge DevCon, showcasing the best of the 3D web as live performance art with a catered reception in a film festival atmosphere. The Forge DevCon in San Francisco week after next. Here are a couple of pictures before and after the events:
