(https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helSome readersI would like to integrate manufacturer data (and data only) inside one of the objects in my project model. Is this possible?
Yes, it is, through my “Data Download” feature, which is available within my plugin. You can even select which references and properties you want to extract from a manufacturer object to be integrated into an object within your project.Few readersIs object documentation accessible from within Revit?
📖
Yes. You can use the "Access Product Page" feature from within the plug-in to access object-related documentation.Few readersHow can I keep the link between templates/family files and Onfly?
Download the object from the central library platform when creating the Revit template.
When updates are available, they will be offered directly in Revit in the family file or template.
If changes are made from the template, you need to upload the file again to push the changes back to the central library.

Let’s take an example. If we want to use the platform editor to add a parameter to the schedule, we can add and specify properties and enter data.
The update will be pushed to users next time they log in to Revit.Some readersHow can I add several objects to the library at once?
The project batch feature allows you to add all objects (or a selection of objects) to the library at once.
From the plugin you can publish several objects on your onfly space in a few clicks via the "upload" button that you will find in the Revit ribbon of our plugin,

🔁 It all depends on the name of the .rfa files of the different LODs of the object.
If they have identical names, objects in the project and all their instances will be replaced automatically.
There is no need to perform a manual replacement.
If the files have different names, the object will be downloaded as a new object, which means that the previous object must be replaced manually.PopularIf I remove or modify properties of an object on the platform, are these properties removed or modified in Revit for users?
When an object is updated within a Revit project, only changes made to properties already in the object are taken into account. If a property is deleted online, this does not affect the object in Revit.
When a property is changed, it is revised in Revit.
Adding a reference does not affect the object in Revit.
A change to the 3D model (changing the RVT or RFA file) does not affect the object in Revit.
Otherwise, any update to tFew readersIf a family is modified in Revit by a user, how can I reset the object back to its initial properties?

A 2D symbol can be added to objects in the form of an .rfa (such as classification families or “annotation families.”)Some readersCan I share a mapping configuration with my team so that BIM&CO’s properties will be “translated” the same way?
Yes.
In the plugin settings, you can edit a mapping between your shared parameters and BIM&CO’s properties, then setup a Mapping Configuration that will also be available in the plugin for your entire Onfly team.
As such, any upload or download will be treated the same in terms of its property mapping configuration.PopularHow to display the collections in the plugin?
