3.26.2

Export custom parameters to Revit
“This update ensures your custom program data flows directly into Revit, so you can focus on design instead of re-entering numbers.”
– Azhar Poonawala, Sr. Product Analyst

You can now export custom program data from Snaptrude directly into Revit, including occupancy factors, costs, and other attributes. This eliminates manual re-entry and keeps design and documentation in sync.

Key Highlights

  • Automatic Shared Parameters: Custom columns in Program Mode are exported as Revit Shared Parameters, reusing existing ones to avoid duplication.
  • Smart Mapping:
    • Spaces → Rooms + Generic Models
    • Floors → Rooms
    • Departments → Rooms (with custom data)
  • Snaptrude-managed Parameter File: A .txt file is auto-generated on first export and reused across projects.
  • Clean UI: Updated import screen clearly separates geometry-only vs geometry + room data.

UI Updates

  • Import with Room Labels: Interface now clearly separates options for importing geometry only vs. geometry + room data and labels.
