Revit Materials and Drafting Views

Revit Materials and Drafting Views have configurations under Revit Instances, even though we map them to Items, since they are a special use case in Revit.

Materials

When a material is added to a Revit family and the family is saved to dRofus, we can carry the Material with the Family. While a family is loaded into a model, the material is also loaded into the material library.

If a Revit material is added to a Revit family, it can travel with it. When an item with a saved Revit family (with a material) is loaded into a model, the material is added to the project. To sync materials, select Sync All within the Material <--> dRofus Item window, then Ok to update all Revit Materials to linked Items.

Drafting Views

Drafting views are instances of 2D drafted views in Revit models, but are not treated as occurrences in dRofus like all other instances. In this case, the View is treated like all other family types.
