Creating Family Type Icons

Over the past we year we have had a few enquiries about how to add icons to family types within Family Browser. This is most commonly asked when a family has totally different geometry per type within the family. Revit can’t do it and we can’t generate an image from the API for this. There has been a recent discussion over at RFO - Link Here, discussing this very topic.

Well the good news is that within Family Browser we can now do this. You will need to download the currunt release of Family Browser/Project Browser from our products page for this to work.

Below is a video showing just how simple this is.

Categorize Exsiting Family Folders


Over the last year we have had a few requests from clients wanting a simple way of re-organizing their existing Family folder structure into folders based on the Family Category, ready to be used in Family Browser.
Well I have just inbuilt a function into Family/Project Browser that does just that. Please view the video below to see how easy this is. You will need to download the latest version of FB/PB for this to be available.
