Naviate Architecture Features

Door Management

Door management identifies and let you control all doors in your project to save you hours in documentation and data management. Parameter values such as: swing direction, room number, levels, department and many room parameters can be combined into one Unique ID, with values automatically updated and viewed as tags on drawings. It also solves IFC swing direction issue (mirroring).

Pattern Editor

Editing patterns from within Revit is only possible with grids or single lines, and advanced editing requires time and knowledge of complicated .pat files or objects from AutoCAD. Pattern Editor lets you access and edit patterns easily. Patterns can be duplicated and applied to chosen objects with instant feedback.

Window Management

Window management identifies and let you control all windows in your project to save you hours in documentation and data management. Parameter values such as: swing direction, room number, levels, department and many room parameters can be combined into one Unique ID, with values automatically updated and viewed as tags on drawings. It also solves IFC swing direction issue (mirroring).

Align Walls

Simply fix walls that are off axis. Can align to be perpendicular or orthographic to an existing wall.

Automatic Update

Automatically update elements in you project. If parameter values you choose in your settings are changed, running automatic update will update all parameter values.

Automatic Update Checked

Create Area Boundary Lines

Create Area Boundary Lines based on different Wall Types before placing Rooms in Area Plan. Lines are placed according to the Basic/Curtain Wall Functions and Placement Rules. You can also update Area Boundary Lines, ensuring all lines are recreated to reflect the latest wall changes. All lines will be created as unpinned Area Boundary Lines.

Create Coverings

Generates covering elements per each selected room.

Create Room Regions

Generates Gross and Net areas based on room parameters.

Create Zone Regions

Easily calculate Gross and Net areas.

Curtain Grid Designer

Create and repeat Grid line patterns along the Curtain Wall. You will be able to easily add, edit and remove grid lines for your Curtain Wall, grid lines with their parameters are visible in a grid view. There is also a preview of how will your Grid line pattern look on your wall, here you can see all changes before you apply grid lines on your wall. 

Curtain Wall Elevations

Create dimensioned Elevations from section view types for preselected Curtain Walls. Select one or more Curtain Walls to generate individual Elevation views from Section View Types for each Curtain Wall. Customize the Views by applying View Templates and adding Dimensions.

Door Tool Settings

Configure what Door parameters to update and how and for configuring swing direction for each family.

Door Drawings

Auto generate door drawings with dimensions and schedules. Auto generate door drawings on sheets ready to send to the rest of the team

Door Management

Door management identifies and let you control all doors in your project to save you hours in documentation and data management.

Door Tools

Manage and document doors in the project with the following functions; Update Doors, Reorder Doors, Locked Door Marks, Door Drawings and Door Tool Settings.

Door Window Area

Updates Door, Window and Curtain Wall Areas by Room. This allows you to get wall net areas by room through calculated formulas in Room Schedules. Multiplying Room Perimeter with Limit Offset and then subtract the calculated Door, Window and Curtain Wall area to get the wall net areas.

Export KOF

Export elements and/or axle junction directly to a KOF formated txt file used by landscape surveyors.

Fi2 to XML

Fi2XML Export Manager enables you to export areas from Revit to a standardized .xml file.

IFC Operation Door

Configure Door Operation IFC parameters.

IFC Operation Window

Configure Window Operation IFC parameters.

Import IFC Space

Import IfcSpace from linked IFC files as unplaced rooms.

Import Point Files

​​​Import Point Files lets you create or update a toposurface/ toposolid from a point file. The files supported are .txt (comma delimited) files, .kof files and .pxy files.

Manage Coverings

Manage existing Coverings. Easily view the Coverings present in the pre-selected rooms; Remove specific Coverings from the pre-selected rooms; Select specific Coverings to delete; Delete all Coverings within the selected rooms and Keep track of deleted Coverings.

Orientation

Add Orientation value for Walls, Doors and Windows. The value is by default written to NVOrientation property of Identity Data of the Instance. 

Pattern Creator

Create Patterns using custom designs made with Detail Lines or Model Lines. These Patterns can be saved for future use, and you can Export or Import .pat files to apply them to any project. Additionally, you can include the creation of Filled Regions from the Pattern. When this option is enabled, a Filled Region preview will be automatically generated in the same/active View.

Pattern Editor

Access and edit patterns easily. Patterns can be duplicated and applied to chosen objects with instant feedback.

Roof Slope Arrow

Modify slopes on Roof elements by defining start elevation and slope or end elevation.

Room Copy

Copy rooms/spaces from Linked models into the host model.

Room Drawings

Generates elevation views of walls inside rooms/spaces. Place the generated views on sheets.

Room Data

A set of tools for adding Opening Areas and Skirting Board Lenght to Rooms. Includes Opening Area and Wall Perimeter.

Room Finishes

Transfer an element's Material parameters into a Room Finishes parameters in Revit. You can include the total material area in the parameter and choose to write multiple element’s material layers if required.

Slope Arrow

Define start and end elevations on roof easily.

Split Floors

Split a floor easily by using lines. Great for when a floor surface has varying finishes

Update by Slope Arrow

Allows the user to manually update the Roof Slope Arrow.

Update Doors

A manual update for Doors in your project. If parameter values, written to the Doors by this tool are changed, running Update Doors will update all parameter values. You will need to manually run the tool whenever these parameters should be corrected.

Update Roof Slope

Update the Roof Slope based on Arrows hosted on it.

Update Windows

A manual update for Windows in your project. If parameter values, written to the Windows by this tool are changed, running Update Windows will update all parameter values. You will need to manually run the tool whenever these parameters should be corrected.

Wall Data

A set of tools for adding Orientation, Wall Gross Area and Wall Height parameters to wall instances.

Wall Gross Area

Writes a parameter to walls that indicate its Gross Area.

Wall Height

Writes a parameter to walls defining its actual height.

Wall Perimeter

Updates Wall Perimeter by Room. The perimeter of walls is added as a shared parameter on rooms, named NVNetPerimeter. It will subtract Door Width, Window Width and Room Separation Lines from the Default Perimeter on Rooms.
