Revit Tutorial with Excercise (REVIT 2017): How to Change Project Information in Revit

Revit Tutorial with Excercise (REVIT 2017): 

How to Change Project Information in Revit




In this Revit courses, we are going to see how to create new project in Revit. First, we are going to open up the Revit and Create new project by clicking Revit home button or Clicking New in the startup screen. 






After you've successfully load up your template in Revit, now let's look at some of the project settings. 



We are going to start off with inputting our Project information in our Revit Title Block. 

In the Project Browser, go to Sheet and Click one of the Sheet. I choose A1-floor plan. If you double click on the sheet, Revit will open up the sheet and you can see that Revit already have their default Title Block inserted into a project. Revit will create automatically creates Autodesk title block as a default. We will cover in later in this Revit training how to customize your title block in Revit.



In order to input your Project information in Revit, go to Manage Tab and Click Project Information.  Project Information window will appears and you can input your Project information. The another ways to input Project Information is, you can click directly on the Title Block to input or making changes. Second option might be better if you have 1 or 2 information that needs to be input or edited (All other sheets will be affected by these changes that you made in Project Information).

  


Go back to your Sheet and check if your Project Information successfully updated in your Title Block. Next Time we, will go over how to manage Location in Revit. 

If you still does not have Revit installed in your computer, please see my previous post showing how to get revit free download.
