At the end of a project that has all the families, sheets, etc loaded, I want that to become a template.  Right now I do this by combing through every sheet and manually deleting all drawing ojects, families, text, lines, detail items, etc etc.   Pretty cumbersome.  Is there a better way?   A third party add-in that makes the creation of templates from a revit project better? 

I serached revit city arhives, my Lynda.com and cadclips for tutorials, as well as the Revit help, no luck.    Seems like an important tool to develop.

I'm not following what you want.. you want a different template for every job that you do?  You would create a template that has everything that you need in it and create your project from that.

Teafoe5, no I want to periodically update the template.  With all the new things that may have been added to the last project. I will search "transferring project standards"

its not about transferring project standards.   We would like to have legends, typical blocks for the project type, views, schedules, sheets pre loaded.  This sounds like a process that would strip out all drawing objects, text, lines, symbols from drawing views and leave sheets, project's fmailies, groups, schedules, etc in place. 

Has anyone seen an article for typical method to start a standard drawing set with all of these standards in place?

I'm just looking to get back on board with Revit after a very long break and collecting lots of links in my bookmarks that I have to get organised and review. Is there a better guide than this one from Aaron Maller? http://malleristicrevitation.blogspot.co.uk/2011/03/creating-revit-template.html
