Recently, some netizens reported that when operating Revit, the family files they saved did not display thumbnails, which was very distressing. So how do we solve it? Below, the editor will share the solution to the problem that thumbnails are not displayed in family files saved in Revit. I hope friends in need can learn from it together.
In fact, the display of thumbnails can be controlled in Revit. When saving the family file, click "Options" to select the source of the thumbnail preview.
1. When the thumbnail preview source selects "3D View: View 1", the family file thumbnails will be displayed based on this view. (Note: If the selected view corresponding to the thumbnail preview source has never been opened in Revit, it will not Generate thumbnails) The reason why the family file saved by the editor before does not display the image is because I selected "3D View: View 1" as the thumbnail preview source, but the editor has never opened the "3D View: View 1" view;
2. When the thumbnail preview source is "Active View/Drawing", the family file thumbnail will be displayed based on the view last opened when saving the file;
3. Re-open the family file, switch to the 3D view "3D" or "View 1" and adjust the display of the family in the view interface. Save as family, select the thumbnail preview source as the corresponding view just adjusted, and save the family file image. Can display normally;
Come and learn how to solve the problem of thumbnails not being displayed in family files saved in Revit. It will definitely help everyone.
