RVT Files
The rvt file extension is associated with Revit Architecture, a Building Information Modeling software developed by Autodesk. The rvt file contains Revit project created and saved in the program.
How to load the material library
The Weathertex cladding component contains manufacturer specific render materials
These materials have been included in the download from www.rubysketch.com
Revit will try to find these materials automatically in the following directory:
C:\RVT\Rubysketch\Materials\Weathertex
The first time you use this component you will need to copy the images contained in the ‘Materials’ folder
included in the download, and paste into the ‘Altro’ file as above (note you may need to create the folder structure
if you have not used RubySketch components with custom materials before)
The materials will now load the custom render finishes from this location
How to use the Weathertex files
1. Ensure you have your RVT project open
2. Open the RVT file WallCladding_Weathertex.rvt downloadable from www.rubysketch.com
3. Select the desired wall type from the color ranges above (hold Ctrl to select multiple)
4. Copy the wall types using the Copy to Clipboard button located on the Modify section of the ribbon
5. Return to your RVT project and use the Paste from Clipboard button on the Modify section of the
ribbon to load the wall types into your project, they will now be selectable from the wall types drop down menu
