Bird Tools - CAD Link Opener

Revit users have often faced challenges when it comes to opening DWG links within the software. However, with the introduction of the Bird Tools - CAD Link Opener plugin, this concern becomes a thing of the past. This free Autodesk® Revit® application revolutionizes the way users interact with their DWG links, providing a seamless and efficient workflow.

Opening DWG Links with Ease

Prior to the existence of Bird Tools - CAD Link Opener, Revit users had to go through multiple steps to access their DWG links. This process was often time-consuming and inefficient. However, this plugin simplifies the procedure, allowing users to open DWG links effortlessly.

When executing the command, users simply select the desired DWG link, and it opens in a new Autodesk® AutoCAD® instance. If AutoCAD is not already running, the file will open in a new instance. Alternatively, if AutoCAD is already running, the file will open within the existing instance, saving users time and effort.

This means that regardless of where the DWG file is stored, users can easily open and edit it using the plugin. This flexibility enhances collaboration between different team members working on the same project, regardless of their preferred DWG viewer/editor.
