Movie from the BIM special interest group for May 2012.
This movie shows how to link one for to another using Referencing. A design for a bus stop is added to the concept model of the urban design.
This movie shows how to quickly model a building using extrusions, Push/Pull, Add Solid, Subtract Solid and other 3D modeling tools.
This movie shows you how to place a Heliodon and Camera to create a rendered view of a conceptual model. It also shows how to edit the settings on the Heliodon and Camera.
This movie shows how to use the Modify by Record command. This command can be used to change the color of objects based on the record information attached to each object. It can even be used to extrude objects based on the records attached to the objects.
