Dealing with units of measurement conversions can be tedious, but Family Type Manager Pro provides a powerful Unit of Measure Converter that can handle bulk conversions between imperial and metric units. With the ability to convert up to 5 million values at once, this feature ensures that your data is accurately and efficiently transformed to meet project requirements.

Real-Time Collaboration and Compatibility

A remarkable aspect of Family Type Manager Pro is its compatibility with any Revit version and language. This means that regardless of the specific version of Revit you are using or the language preference, this plugin seamlessly integrates into your workflow. Furthermore, Revit families and project files can remain open during changes, enabling real-time testing and deployment of family content modifications. This feature facilitates a rapid content creation process and enhances collaboration within teams.

Enhanced Data Management Features

Family Type Manager Pro offers an array of advanced features to streamline data management. The document management Scratch Pad allows users to have a dedicated space for notes, ideas, and temporary data storage. With the ability to determine every possible Type combination that exists, users can utilize customizable rules to name family types and control parameter values. The plugin also offers error checking before importing data into Revit, ensuring data consistency and accuracy. Additionally, the ability to bulk convert content to different languages and units of measurement values makes Family Type Manager Pro a powerful tool for global projects.

Seamless Collaboration and Sharing

Family Type Manager Pro enables easy collaboration and sharing of Excel data files with other departments, vendors, or customers. With the ability to edit content without requiring Revit, teams can seamlessly share data with non-Revit users, enhancing communication and workflow efficiency. The plugin also allows users to sort and organize data, convert data to shareable Excel files, and generate single, multi, or full list Type Catalogs. These features ensure that data is readily accessible and easily comprehensible for all stakeholders.
