Fitters | Window

This tool allows users to fit windows from a catalogue in a semi-automated fashion to quickly add intelligent components to Revit models.

Using the Tool

To fit a window, follow the steps below:

1. Click the Window icon in the Fitters panel.

   1. The Fit Window dialog will appear.

2. In the Fit Window dialog, modify the settings as follows:

   1. Specify the Maximum Recess Depth value.

   2. Select a family.

   3. Select the check box for automatic window detection if needed.

   4. Click OK.

3. Select a region of the point cloud where a window should be fitted.

4. A new dialog will appear, suggesting a window type based on the best fit within the family.

   1. Accept the suggested type.

   2. Or, if the suggested type is not a close enough fit, create a new type by defining the name and adjusting the size of the new type, if needed. As a result, a new entry will be created in the family, and the new type will appear on the list for future window fitting.

c. Click OK, and the window will be placed.
