In this tutorial I will show you how to model an interesting building in FormIt and how to bring it back into Revit. You will also learn how to use your Revit model and add to it inside of FormIt by using some of the FormIt's modeling tools.

I'm soooo glad I bumped unto this video. For yeeeaarrrs, I had hoped that this sort of flexibility would be created in Revit & I am beyond happy to know that it's finally come. Honestly, I can't even believe it.
I've always found modelling in Revit to be sooo rigid so what I've always had to do is do the basic drawings in revit then export the model to sketchup & finish up there & then re-import the model back to Revit. Even that workflow was very tedious & I'd be honest I never really understood how to make the sketchup components of the model identifiable in Revit.
With a software like FormIt now being as fluid,flexible & easy as SketchUp for modelling, it certainly is going to make my workflow better. I haven't even gotten FormIt yet but I'm already so excited. I didn't even know a software called FormIt existed until i randomly bumped into this video today
Thank you!
Took the words right outta my mouth 😊
THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARINGING YOUR KNOWLEDGE. YOU ARE REALLY HELPING US IN OUR ARCHITRCTURAL COURSE . KEEP IT UP AND THANKS ONCE AGAIN.
Great information! Thanks lot Balken❤❤
Very interesting. Thinking of switching to FormIt in lieu of Sketchup.
Please, upload more videos in terms of formit. IT'S VERY HELPFUL
Thank you
thnx for sharing
Question. A use of sketchup is massing casework or millwork or furniture or lighting.
Can this do that and provide better support within a Revit file.
Autodesk made a copy of sketchup... I have almost 20 years experience with sketchup so definately need to give this one a try!
made a sketchup which is still not properly compatible. As you can see you have to do workarounds. Autodesk just doing Autodesk things as always.
Hi you are the best, I have a revit project from 2017 and when i want to open it from the revit 2023 it says « revit file corrupted needs manually recovered » i dont know what to do. I used to work with a central model in 2017. And i dont know if the central model still exist and i have ni backup
It does increase the workflow but if it cant sync revit to form it will be more helpful , because U can only add facade on models from revit , but you cant sync edited model in revit to Form it , thats a big issue there tbh
Wow ty
Cool !!!👋👋
Does FormIt connect to AutoCad? This would be a great program for smaller projects (and designers) that dont quite need Revit, but do need a better drafting program than SketchUps Layout.
hi, does Formit have some similar to the sandbox function from Sketchup?
Wow wow woooooow
Why would you not share that you can link an .axm files directly to Revit? In some ways it looks like FormIt/Revit workflows have simplified in recent releases but also that it may have lost features. Back with FormIt was a add-in you could convert a SketchUp Model to Revit using it. I also wonder about the lively hood of FormIt with Forma in the mix now.
Will formit 2023 be compatible with revit 2024 ?
wow
My office didn’t want to use it because of a lack of 3d storehouse, I don’t think there’s an easy way to import from a warehouse right
It opens .skp files natively
It is good for modeling families?
Pohvale za kanal ☺, ja sam pocetnik u Revitu i trebalo bi da kupim nov laptop. Da li mi neko moze preporuciti koje performanse su potrebne za pocetnika, za neku cenu okvirno 100.000,00 din, hvala unapred
Hvala! Lenovo ima dobre kompjutere. Gledaj da je i5 i nekih 16GB rama.
does this have plugins?= no
Yes, has Revit addin
Hello Balkan Architect! I need help in Revit)
Hi everyone! Tell me plz what the main differences between SketchUp and FormIt?
Thank you Balkan Architect. This was really helpful. But I am a bit irritated by how Revit adds an interesting functionality but only teases us with some crucial obstacle. For example here we can do all fantastic work in Formit but then when you import it in Revit it simply only is a CAD import which can neither be used as faces to add elements nor converted into an object. The workaround you showed is good, but in the long run when one has many iterations it will get cumbersome. Also the last step where you edited a facade element, I would have loved if there was some way in Revit to immediately convert the form into Revit native elements. But Alas ! We might have to wait for another 2-3 years before that appears. THAT IS SO IRRITATING !!!
No
it is just copying sketchup. and it's a shame that Autodesk does not include it in Revit but sales it for 3000+ $$$ a year
Definitely it's not
form it is cool. but it will never reach sketchup heights..
