Did You Know? - Project Parameters Can be Pushed

Did you know you could push existing Revit Project Parameters from one project to another through the use of Schedules?  

  1. Open the project you want to add project parameters to.
  2. "Insert" Tab > "Insert 2D Elements from File"
  3. Select the File that has the Project Parameters you want to duplicate and click "open"
  4. A dialog will pop up showing all of the 2D views in that project.  Select the Schedules you want to import into your project. 
  5. If the schedules selected for import have Project Parameter Fields in them, those schedules along with their related Project Parameters will be added to your new project.
Hint, Hint...ever thought about creating Revit Project Files (not templates) that have all of your typical Project Details and Schedules in them?  Using the steps above you could quickly insert them when you need them, without weighing down your Project with a heavy project template.
