Key Features
The CAD Block Remapper app by Bird Tools is a versatile add-in for both Autodesk AutoCAD and Autodesk Revit. One of its standout features is its ability to map families to linked CAD Blocks without the need for CAD import or Import Explosion. This means that the CAD files are automatically processed by the AutoCAD add-in part of the app, streamlining the workflow for users.
Another key feature of the CAD Block Remapper is its support for Autodesk Docs Cloud hosted CAD Links. This allows users to seamlessly integrate CAD files hosted on the cloud into their Revit projects, improving collaboration and accessibility.
The app supports both hosted and non-hosted families and offers the option to host families on the nearest ceiling or wall, with the ability to specify vertical offsets. This flexibility ensures that users can place family instances exactly where they need them, without any manual adjustments.
Furthermore, the CAD Block Remapper automatically detects CAD Block rotation angles and positions the new family instances accordingly. This advanced functionality eliminates the need for manual rotation and alignment, saving users valuable time and ensuring accuracy in their projects.
