Enhanced Productivity with Innovative Features

One standout feature of workFlow is its ability to reference views in parameter values, text notes, and keynotes. This functionality allows for seamless coordination across your project, as these references automatically update whenever a view changes. This eliminates the need for manual updates, saving you valuable time and ensuring accuracy across your entire model.

Another remarkable feature is the ability to align similar views from one sheet to the next with just a click of a button. No more tedious manual adjustments or aligning views one by one. With workFlow, you can effortlessly ensure consistency and improve the visual flow of your project documentation.

Efficient View Management

Searching for specific views within a large list can be time-consuming and frustrating. With workFlow, you can place reference views by sheet and detail number, eliminating the need for extensive searching. This simple yet powerful feature allows you to quickly locate and access the views you need, increasing your productivity and reducing frustration.

Setting up an office standard for view naming is essential for maintaining consistency throughout a project. workFlow simplifies this process by allowing you to set a standard for view naming and update view names with just one click. This not only saves time but also ensures that your project adheres to the established naming conventions, improving overall project organization.

finishFloors - Create finish objects aligned with the finish schedule with a single click or create a range of floors in bulk. Floors can be updated with a single click if the room size, shape, or floor type changes!

Streamlined Documentation and Project Management

The creation of finish floors based on the finish schedule is a common task in architectural projects. With workFlow, you can generate finish floors with a single click, eliminating the need for manual input and reducing the chances of errors. Furthermore, the ability to create finish floors for the entire project at once increases efficiency and saves valuable time.

QC checking dimension plans for undimensioned elements is another crucial aspect of project documentation. workFlow simplifies this process by providing a built-in QC check feature that identifies undimensioned elements in your dimension plans. This ensures that your documentation is comprehensive and accurate, preventing costly errors during construction.

dimensionOverride - Select many dimensions and override their value with the same value all at once or predefine commonly used overrides and apply them with a single click.

Effortless Bulk Overrides and BIM 360 Local Cache Management

Managing dimension overrides is a time-consuming task that can be made more efficient with workFlow. This plugin allows you to override dimensions with override standards in bulk, eliminating the need to manually adjust each dimension individually. This functionality saves time and improves consistency in your project documentation.

Additionally, workFlow offers a convenient feature to manage your BIM 360 local cache. With this tool, you can easily control and optimize your local cache, ensuring smooth collaboration and effective data management within your team.

View Reference Master - Create reference views quickly by selecting the sheet and detail number of the desired view rather than sorting through the long list of possible views in the Autodesk® Revit® dropdown.
