Hello,
I am currently using Revit Architecture 2012 and am trying to export a project file in a .fbx format to start using Autodesk Showcase which I just downloaded a free trial for. For whatever reason, Revit won't let me export any file in a .fbx format. Instead of being able to click on that as an option, it's greyed out. Is there an update I need to download or an fbx plug-in I need to get to utilize the fbx exporting function??
PS: I've put myself in the 3D view which I know can be an issue of why the fbx export function is greyed out.
Thanks!

You only need to Read the HELP and follow the instructions:
Exporting to FBX
- In Revit Architecture, open a 3D view, and prepare it for export.
See Before Exporting a 3D View to 3ds Max.
- Click Export(FBX).
TipIf FBX displays as gray, open a 3D view of the project, and then try again.
- In the Export 3ds Max (FBX) dialog, for Save in, navigate to the target folder for the exported file.
- For Naming, do one of the following:
- To specify a file name manually, select Manual (Specify file name). For File name/prefix, specify the name of the output file.
YOU HAVE TO BE IN THE VIEW! Not just looking at it.
- Click Save.
Revit Architecture generates the FBX file and places it in the target location.

I'm looking at the view and I clicked/highlighted a couple items to make sure I was in it as well. Still didn't work. Unless that's not the proper way to be "in the view"?
