What is the proper workflow to modify and save an Enscape asset for future use?
For example, I do not want the 3D model to be visible in plan view. I would like to emulate a typical Revit family and have 2D linework and masking regions for plan view, and the 3D elements visible in 3D views.
I know I can drop the asset in the model, edit the asset family, add my linework and hide the 3D model in plan views, and reload into my model and I get exactly what I want. How do I then save or export my modified asset for future use in other projects?
Thanks.
If you associate a Revit family to the Enscape Asset you’re golden. If you use the Revit family in a future Revit project Enscape will automatically associate the previously associated assets were asset with the family (because the Enscape asset parameters are added to the Revit family and type). This is the process (available since v2.7):
I see. I need to reverse my workflow and bring the asset into the existing Revit family.
Thanks Phil!
Just to be clear you don’t have to nest or bring the Enscape asset into the Revit family. Just link them together in the Revit project environment which will build the necessary parameters in the Revit family so that it is associated to the Enscape asset. Keep in mind that you may have to modify the rotation / origin of the Revit family to match the Enscape asset. 
I am not sure I understand the ‘link them together’ portion. I cannot find a relevant writeup on the process via web search. Can you point me in a direction?
Thanks.
Just watch the video in my previous post and you’ll see the process.
Ah, jeez. Sorry, didn’t even see the video earlier. Got it now.
Thanks much.
There is big problem,when i want to change the asset’s texture , how to do it?
