Would like to trim walls and lines to a preset radius.  Seems like I heard there was a way but no luck searching Revit Help.

Revit 2009 latest build

don't use the trim command, use the "fillet arc" command. It's on the options bar once in the wall command.

yeah i like it!

Is there a way I can embed the tutorials I create into my internal office wiki so it plays the video, not just displays a link to JING?

Well, if you go to the 2 buttom (in middle) of JING you have "History" and if you pick in one image or video you can see you can "Share" or "Embed" but i don't know if you could "embed" the video files of your tutorials (made in other programs) to JING, i think you can go to Jing site and try to check if there are some awnsers about that.... you also can create "images" - Screen shots, did you see that???

Why isn't there a radius trim option available for everything?  Hasn't autocad had this for years in ADT?  Why not Revit?

Hogmodo,

Autocad are Revit are two totally different programs.

Why can't my wife cook? My mom can!

 

I did find with the video "embed" link, I can just paste it into my <html></html> code on my wiki. Now i just need to figure out how to resize it.

...............towards the every day Revit user.  It is obvious that trimming to a radius is possible in Revit. It is available under the wall command.  Adding that trim option to the trim selection list for lines is just too much trouble to worry about.  This is another situation that reinforces the impression that Autodesk is more concerned with making Revit more Bimmy and is not really concerned about making it work better for the normal user.  We early Revit users complained long and hard that it was stupid for Revit to not allowing "selection box to the right picks enclosed and selection box to the left picks everything crossed" like Autcad had always done.  Finally, it got added.  Revit was never not capable of it, they just hadn't bothered to put it in.
