Hello,
My real name is Pete Dickerson. I work for a residential home builder in Columbus ,Ohio drawing new homes(or now biming new homes). We do approx. 140 to 160 homes a years and growing we have been established for 10+ years. We offer homes from 120's to 400's. We consider ourselves semi custom builders allowing the home owner to take a baseplan and tweak it to just about any configuration.
We purchaed revit last feb after looking at archicad, vectorworks and softplan. We actually went with softplan but sent it back because we didn' get the amount of linkablitty,if that is a real word, that revit gave us. I have had all of autodesks training on revit last year and we are finally ready to start converting our baseplns over to revit, 55 of them with 40 new ones with in the next year. Revit has really sped up our new product development.
We really love revit and it has been great learning it. Everytime I find something new I feel like kid with a new toy.
Pete

Hi Peter
I work for a large housing company in Australia. We purchased Revit to trial it for our business. We have just attempted to mirror one of the home designs using Revit (see technical Forum) with a disapointing result. As you are in the housing industry I would like to know if you have been able to do it with better results than us.
Cheers
Tim

I have not had success mirroring plans - but its easy to copy and then rotate(sometimes you still have some work to do after that to get it all just right - but is pretty fast).

Hi.
I'm working with Revit too, and i do not have any major problem mirroring the models.
But you could try this: Create the model in 1 file, then open a new file and create a link to the model in the other file. Then you could rotate, mirror, ... the model still the same.
