Importance of using the constraints

Users should have to constraints on elements within model to maintain the elements. But it generally hide in the options so If users use the 'reveal constraints' display mode on view control bar at bottom of each view then it allows to visualize about the constraints in the Revit model.

Rendering technology

If this technology does not exist then users have to make models in several hours instead of few minutes. to get the full Revit version users have to subscribe ENSCAPE for rendering, client presentation. If users have only Revit LT then they have to make panoramas through the Autodesk Cloud Rendering Subscription. Users may check out the RevitWork Caf?.
