Topics in the Plugins

Both the Revit and Navisworks plugins connect directly with the Design module in BIMWorkplace, allowing users to view, create, and update topics without leaving their modeling environment.

All changes are synchronized with the platform, ensuring consistency across the project.

1.     Syncing Topics

Ø  Ensure the Hub is connected to the correct project

Ø  In the BIMWorkplace tab, open Topics Manager

Ø  Click the refresh icon

§  All topics from the connect project will be loaded

2.     Toolbar Overview

Common tools in both plugins:

     Search Bar – locate topics by name

     View Columns – show or hide columns

      Filter Icon – filter topics by clash-related fields

When a topic is selected, three more buttons become active:

3.     Creating Topics

When Creating a topic:
