What it does
RushForth Tools connects Revit with Excel for parameter data, table formatting, filtering, calculations, and project setup. It manages shared parameters, links parameter values between elements and linked models, and supports batch family processing. The toolkit creates 3D views, project views, sheets, and drafting views, and includes tools for placing elements in spaces and around room perimeters.
Key capabilities
from the Autodesk App Store listingExcel parameter workflows
Synchronizes Revit element data with Excel for filtering, text replacement, calculations, concatenation, and parameter editing.
Shared parameter management
Imports and exports shared parameters, adds missing parameters to scheduled elements, batch processes families, and converts family parameters to shared parameters.
Parameter linking
Links parameter values between elements and linked models, including non-schedulable properties to parameters used in schedules or tags.
Drafting view tables
Imports Excel tables into Revit drafting views while preserving fonts and formatting, and supports table updates.
3D section creation
Creates 3D views for selected regions, elements, levels, or ceiling spaces.
Project view setup
Creates views and sheets from project levels and templates, and creates dependent views using scope boxes or linked-model settings.
Sheet placement
Places new or existing views onto specified sheets and creates unplaced rooms or placeholder sheets from Excel lists.
Ray cast placement
Places or moves element instances relative to walls, ceilings, floors, spaces, and selected-space perimeters.
Use cases
- A project team can prepare views and sheets from project levels, templates, linked-model settings, or Excel lists.
- A Revit model can use linked parameter values to connect detail items in diagrams with equipment on floor plans.
- Families downloaded for a project can be batch processed to match preset schedules and tags.
How it compares
Batch Floor Plan Sheet Creation Pro creates sheets for individual rooms or entire floors and batch processes Revit files. RushForth Tools also creates views and sheets, while adding Excel, parameter, 3D view, drafting view, and element-placement functions. Master Purger analyzes and removes unplaced views, legends, schedules, linked or imported CAD files, unplaced rooms, unplaced spaces, and unused scope boxes. Unused Elements Cleaner detects and deletes unused elements in current and linked models, while RushForth Tools includes purging categories or filtered selections. Kobi Toolkit for Autodesk® Revit is described as providing nine tool sets and over 40 individual tools for BIM workflow tasks; the supplied description does not specify those tools' functions.
