WEBVTT 00:00.960 --> 00:06.400 Now that we've started adding families into our project, we're going to go ahead and continue on 00:06.400 --> 00:11.760 with adding some of the break room furniture. And in this case, we're going to use a pre-loaded 00:11.760 --> 00:20.080 family that Revit has provided with the installation and it's also already loaded into our model here. 00:20.080 --> 00:26.240 And you'll find as you do more projects, that's going to be more often the case than it is to 00:26.240 --> 00:32.400 have to go in and create a lot of custom families. That being said, knowing how to create 00:32.400 --> 00:37.120 families and knowing the ins and outs of creating something like we just did here is a really 00:37.120 --> 00:42.480 important skill. It's also important to know how families were created because what if you get one 00:42.480 --> 00:47.840 from like a manufacturer and it's just terrible and it doesn't do everything you need and you have 00:47.840 --> 00:52.720 to go in and modify it. So the best way to know how to modify a family is to be able to create them 00:52.720 --> 01:00.160 from scratch. So let's go ahead and load in the table family that we're looking for here. And like 01:00.160 --> 01:05.920 I said before, it's already part of our project. So we'll go to component and we're going to look for 01:06.800 --> 01:13.280 table dining with table dining round with chairs and we want that 36 inch diameter. 01:14.480 --> 01:19.120 And you can see the preview here shows us the table we're looking for and so I'll go ahead and 01:19.120 --> 01:26.000 place this in a couple of locations. So I'll just put one here, say another one there and we'll 01:26.000 --> 01:30.800 just have a total of four that I'm just going to place and kind of line them up. You didn't necessarily 01:30.800 --> 01:36.640 have to do that, but it works out pretty well that way. And then this break room tag is definitely 01:36.640 --> 01:42.640 in the way. So if you remember from them 101, if we want to move a tag outside of the room boundary, 01:42.640 --> 01:48.800 we need to first assign a leader to it by selecting the tag and telling it to use a leader. 01:48.800 --> 01:54.000 And then I can use that move symbol to drag it outside of the room boundary and then 01:54.960 --> 02:00.160 as long as I keep this dot within the boundary, you can see it starts to freak out when I don't. 02:00.960 --> 02:05.360 Then we can have the tag and the leader located wherever we want. 02:06.560 --> 02:11.040 Next thing I could do is I can go ahead and I could, if I wanted to show these in a different 02:11.040 --> 02:16.800 configuration, like let's say rotated for whatever reason, I can do that. So I could rotate these 02:17.440 --> 02:22.160 and I'll go ahead and rotate them 45 degrees and it just gives us a different layout. 02:22.800 --> 02:27.200 I'm also going to delete these dimensions here because we don't need them anymore. There were only 02:27.840 --> 02:32.560 needed for the creation of the bathroom. So I'll go ahead and unconstrained that. 02:33.200 --> 02:38.160 And I'm going to move this up because we're going to have some other elements down in this area. So 02:39.280 --> 02:44.240 got a little too far south with my tables. So I'll go ahead and move those a little further up. 02:44.960 --> 02:49.840 And then I'll rotate the rest of these. And so I'm just going to use the rotate tool. 02:51.280 --> 02:57.760 And it's pretty simple. We just pick a point, start moving it and then type in our rotation. 02:58.560 --> 03:03.680 And since I've already rotated two, I'll just delete those ones and copy it down since we haven't 03:03.680 --> 03:09.760 really tagged anything yet. And just make sure everything kind of stays lined up there. 03:09.920 --> 03:18.560 And so this family here is actually one that consists of two different families loaded into one. 03:18.560 --> 03:25.360 So we have our chairs, which you see here, and then the table, which is actually loaded in. 03:25.360 --> 03:31.200 So I'll click edit family so we can take a look at that set up there. So the table itself was 03:31.200 --> 03:41.120 modeled within this family here. But what we have here is a group of chairs that were loaded in 03:42.560 --> 03:51.360 to this family. And created as an array. So if this table grows, then more chairs will be added 03:51.360 --> 03:58.160 based on the formula that's associated with it. And so when I look at the chairs and the number 03:58.160 --> 04:04.240 of chairs here, it says six. And the radius is defined as a diameter divided by two. 04:04.960 --> 04:11.440 So when I have different table sizes here, you notice that the number of chairs is going to change. 04:12.480 --> 04:16.160 And that's just because as the table gets larger, we can obviously fit more 04:18.160 --> 04:26.000 more chairs along it. And so that's one way that we can use the parameters of an array to go ahead and 04:26.000 --> 04:33.680 associate that with a family parameter. What we're going to do in the next videos, we're going to 04:33.680 --> 04:39.840 take a look at how we can create a similar type of family where we'll have a workstation. And then 04:39.840 --> 04:45.360 within that workstation, we're going to go ahead and actually add components to it like a filing 04:45.360 --> 04:52.240 cabinet and a chair so that we can learn how to create families of this similar type, which these 04:52.800 --> 04:57.440 are pretty effective and they work really well if you're using a similar type of element in 04:57.440 --> 05:07.120 multiple different locations.
