Hi

I imported a pyramid-shaped skylight window from Autocad.

I tried to import this dwg file to "family", and chose "metric window", then up load it to my project.

This maybe work, but it can not be schedule properly.......

What is the best way to model it in Revit since all the frames and glass are not regular forms?

Thank you :-)

Don't do that, Autocad or Sketchup files are "Dumb" objects, you cannot manipulate them in Revit, so, read the tutorials and create your window like you want: http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/item?siteID=123112&id=13376394

I Hope and I Wish to LEARN  more, and more, and more.... REVIT
