Location for export of CNC files – lets you choose where the export files are supposed to be placed:
Project file location – the exporter will create a separate folder at the same location where the current Revit project is saved
Custom location – lets you choose the common location for all exported files
Project Information Parameters – lets you choose what kind of Revit parameters will be used for exported file metadata:
Project Name – lets you choose a parameter for collecting project name
Object Number – lets you choose a parameter for collecting project number
Elements Identification and Mark – this section lets you choose a configuration for marking elements, edit the configuration and create export filters:
Automatically skip not marked Elements – lets you exclude specific elements from being exported:
Ticked – excludes elements that have information missing in parameters defined in the configuration.
Unticked (default) – not active; everything is exported.
Automatically skip filtered out Elements – lets you exclude specific elements from being exported:
Ticked – excludes elements based on the filters defined in Element Filtering tab in Advanced Setup (Element Identification and Mark).
Unticked (default) – not active; everything is exporter.
Marking Orientation by - allows you to choose what element should be used as a reference for placing mark:
Host (default) - orients the marks in relation to the Revit host element (wall, floor, roof, truss)
Element - orients the marks in relation to structural framing elements.
Assembly Station Mode – allows you to merge a few frame assemblies into one file and controls the whole file structure:
Export Composite Layers – once active, it changes files hierarchical order to include Composite Layers. This will generate a separate layer for each of your Revit structure layers from the wall/floor/roof element you are trying to export. Framing elements that are part of the specific layer will be assigned to the respective layer in the export file.
Export as one file – once active, allows you to combine a few framing assemblies into one file to assemble them on the table simultaneously. Frames will appear side by side in a line, and will be touching one another except "Clear Spacing" offset is more than 0.
Unit Rounding – here, you can enter how many decimal points you want values to have in the export file.
Clear Spacing – here, you can enter the distance between the different assemblies if the "Export as one file" option is used.
Configure button opens Advanced Setup menu (Element Identification and Mark) for editing configuration for markings.
