Presume the revit/inventor models are sent to Navisworks & the Plant Model sent to navis too, thinking about how the co ordinate systems are all tied together. Are imported models best avoided because of the performance hit? this looks like a way to keep everything a simple as possible.
The tutorials I've seen appear to point to creating models from scratch using the tools within plant. With Inventor a sketch plane can be used & geometry projected & extruded - not sure how to keep the same co-ordinate system trying to copy the workflow in Autocad.
Models imported from Inventor & Navisworks can be sizable - currently theses models are xrefs but when switched on performance is slow.Īny top tips for creating simple representations of imported model for plant 3d
