OK, I've avoided cheesy titles up until now, but I couldn't resist with this one.
I'm conducting an informal survey to find out what families do people reach for first? When you're getting a project started in Revit, schematic design, deisgn development, whatever phase, what families do you need first, what families are important for putting together a decent looking set of documents?
Please post a comment with your list of top families that you need every day. Please feel free to be more specific that I have been. Being reptitive also counts as I'm interested in prioritizing requests, so even if someone else has posted an item, please post again.
My list starts with the following items (all generic and not manufacturer specific):
Doors
Plumbing Fixtures & Accessories
Casework
Furniture (block diagrams)
Windows
Light Fixtures
MEP - diffusers, sprinklers, etc...
graphic scales
I look forward to everyone's reponse!
Thanks,
-R
