00:00:04.05 --> 00:00:09.06 So if we go back up to file and we go to external content 4 00:00:09.06 --> 00:00:11.04 we have a few different options. 5 00:00:11.04 --> 00:00:13.01 So we can place a hot link 6 00:00:13.01 --> 00:00:16.02 and then we can also place an external drawing 7 00:00:16.02 --> 00:00:18.08 as well as an Xref. 8 00:00:18.08 --> 00:00:20.02 So what we're going to do 9 00:00:20.02 --> 00:00:25.04 is we're going to place an Xref of a survey. 10 00:00:25.04 --> 00:00:28.05 So let's create a new worksheet 11 00:00:28.05 --> 00:00:31.06 so go over to your navigator and then just right click 12 00:00:31.06 --> 00:00:32.04 on the worksheet 13 00:00:32.04 --> 00:00:34.09 and then say new independent worksheet. 14 00:00:34.09 --> 00:00:40.01 And so we'll call this S-01 and we'll just call it survey. 15 00:00:40.01 --> 00:00:46.02 And so let's go to file, external content, attach Xref. 16 00:00:46.02 --> 00:00:48.08 And so we'll browse for the Xref. 17 00:00:48.08 --> 00:00:55.08 And so let's go to Xref for the survey. 18 00:00:55.08 --> 00:00:57.07 So I have a survey here. 19 00:00:57.07 --> 00:01:00.00 And so when you're placing an Xref 20 00:01:00.00 --> 00:01:03.03 it can either be a DWG or a DXF. 21 00:01:03.03 --> 00:01:05.05 And so let's place that. 22 00:01:05.05 --> 00:01:07.08 And so you have a couple different options here. 23 00:01:07.08 --> 00:01:09.00 So you have the reference type, 24 00:01:09.00 --> 00:01:12.02 if it's an attachment or if it's an overlay, 25 00:01:12.02 --> 00:01:13.09 and then you have the insertion point 26 00:01:13.09 --> 00:01:16.01 if you want to specify that on screen 27 00:01:16.01 --> 00:01:20.01 or if you want to specify it here yourself. 28 00:01:20.01 --> 00:01:22.06 We'll leave it at specify on screen. 29 00:01:22.06 --> 00:01:25.05 So you also have the ability to identify 30 00:01:25.05 --> 00:01:28.09 the anchor point of the drawing that you're placing. 31 00:01:28.09 --> 00:01:32.01 So we're going to use the drawing's own origin, 32 00:01:32.01 --> 00:01:33.09 Because it is a survey 33 00:01:33.09 --> 00:01:37.06 typically it's going to be placed in a state plane location 34 00:01:37.06 --> 00:01:40.00 so it's going to be relative 35 00:01:40.00 --> 00:01:43.05 to a known position based on the survey. 36 00:01:43.05 --> 00:01:45.08 And then we have a translator. 37 00:01:45.08 --> 00:01:48.07 And we'll get into this more later, 38 00:01:48.07 --> 00:01:52.01 there's a few different translators that are available. 39 00:01:52.01 --> 00:01:56.06 So let's just use the editable import translator 40 00:01:56.06 --> 00:01:59.01 and we're going to attach that drawing. 41 00:01:59.01 --> 00:02:03.07 And so I'm going to locate where I want to put it. 42 00:02:03.07 --> 00:02:05.09 And this gives me the option 43 00:02:05.09 --> 00:02:10.04 of identifying layers that I want to be visible 44 00:02:10.04 --> 00:02:13.06 or layers that I don't want to bring in the file. 45 00:02:13.06 --> 00:02:16.00 So we're just going to bring them all in. 46 00:02:16.00 --> 00:02:17.05 And so give it a sec. 47 00:02:17.05 --> 00:02:20.08 And because this is in state plane 48 00:02:20.08 --> 00:02:23.01 or it's in a survey position 49 00:02:23.01 --> 00:02:26.02 it's not necessarily going to be close to the origin. 50 00:02:26.02 --> 00:02:29.02 So if you can see it's just a little bit away. 51 00:02:29.02 --> 00:02:33.05 And so let's zoom in on that. 52 00:02:33.05 --> 00:02:36.05 And so we have a survey. 53 00:02:36.05 --> 00:02:39.03 And so the interesting part about an Xref 54 00:02:39.03 --> 00:02:41.00 is it comes in a little bit differently. 55 00:02:41.00 --> 00:02:43.05 So you have the lines that are already there. 56 00:02:43.05 --> 00:02:45.09 And so this is a good point 57 00:02:45.09 --> 00:02:49.03 for you to be able to start drawing over 58 00:02:49.03 --> 00:02:52.09 or gathering information from a drawing. 59 00:02:52.09 --> 00:02:56.02 So let's look at a couple different other options 60 00:02:56.02 --> 00:02:59.01 within the external content. 61 00:02:59.01 --> 00:03:01.08 So if you go back to file, external content, 62 00:03:01.08 --> 00:03:04.02 you can also place a hot link. 63 00:03:04.02 --> 00:03:05.09 So let's just click on that. 64 00:03:05.09 --> 00:03:10.01 And so hot links are three dimensional information 65 00:03:10.01 --> 00:03:13.03 or information that's coming from a three-dimensional file. 66 00:03:13.03 --> 00:03:16.06 So what I did is I just select the module 67 00:03:16.06 --> 00:03:17.09 that I'm looking for 68 00:03:17.09 --> 00:03:21.06 and I go to new module and I can either do it from file 69 00:03:21.06 --> 00:03:23.07 or from a BIMcloud location. 70 00:03:23.07 --> 00:03:25.05 So we'll just say file. 71 00:03:25.05 --> 00:03:27.09 And so here, I'm able to bring in 72 00:03:27.09 --> 00:03:30.02 a few different types of files 73 00:03:30.02 --> 00:03:33.07 so I can bring in an IFC file, Rhino files, 74 00:03:33.07 --> 00:03:37.09 and three different or four different Archicad files. 75 00:03:37.09 --> 00:03:41.07 So if I were to click on a plan file 76 00:03:41.07 --> 00:03:45.06 I would be able to bring that in and I can select the floor 77 00:03:45.06 --> 00:03:50.03 or I can also do all the floors or the entire model. 78 00:03:50.03 --> 00:03:54.04 Since this file doesn't have more information 79 00:03:54.04 --> 00:03:56.02 on various different floors 80 00:03:56.02 --> 00:03:59.08 it's only going to allow us to bring it in individually. 81 00:03:59.08 --> 00:04:02.09 So it's giving us the file name. 82 00:04:02.09 --> 00:04:05.03 It's giving us which story we're bringing it into. 83 00:04:05.03 --> 00:04:07.09 And then it's giving us the source location 84 00:04:07.09 --> 00:04:09.07 of where that file is coming from. 85 00:04:09.07 --> 00:04:13.07 So if we select that and we can give it a master ID, 86 00:04:13.07 --> 00:04:17.01 we can select the layer that it's going to go onto. 87 00:04:17.01 --> 00:04:22.03 And we can adjust where that elevation is. 88 00:04:22.03 --> 00:04:24.01 Typically, you want to probably bring it 89 00:04:24.01 --> 00:04:29.04 into the story levels that you're using in the file 90 00:04:29.04 --> 00:04:31.06 but at some point you might want to keep 91 00:04:31.06 --> 00:04:35.06 the story structure of the host file intact. 92 00:04:35.06 --> 00:04:41.03 So if we place that we can place it in the current view 93 00:04:41.03 --> 00:04:43.09 or its original location. 94 00:04:43.09 --> 00:04:47.08 And so there's not too much information in this file. 95 00:04:47.08 --> 00:04:48.07 Give it a second. 96 00:04:48.07 --> 00:04:52.07 It's just bringing in a north arrow at this point. 97 00:04:52.07 --> 00:04:58.00 So that's a brief overview of kind of the external content. 98 00:04:58.00 --> 00:05:00.03 And so one other thing to note is that 99 00:05:00.03 --> 00:05:03.00 each of these different file formats 100 00:05:03.00 --> 00:05:07.08 or external content types, you also have a manager. 101 00:05:07.08 --> 00:05:10.01 So like we have this hot link manager, 102 00:05:10.01 --> 00:05:12.09 we also have a drawing manager or an Xref manager. 103 00:05:12.09 --> 00:05:14.08 And so let's look into this real quick. 104 00:05:14.08 --> 00:05:18.02 So we have the Xref manager and on the Xref manager 105 00:05:18.02 --> 00:05:22.01 it shows all the different Xrefs that I have in the file. 106 00:05:22.01 --> 00:05:27.03 So if a DWG has been updated and the file name is the same 107 00:05:27.03 --> 00:05:29.01 we can reload it. 108 00:05:29.01 --> 00:05:33.05 We can also detach it or we can attach a new Xref 109 00:05:33.05 --> 00:05:35.00 and then we can also bind or unload. 110 00:05:35.00 --> 00:05:38.06 And binding means that we are embedding 111 00:05:38.06 --> 00:05:41.02 the information into our file 112 00:05:41.02 --> 00:05:45.02 and it won't be able to be refreshed. 113 00:05:45.02 --> 00:05:46.09 So that's the external content. 9134
