Introduction

In the latest version of IMPACT for Revit, we have removed the settings for automatic lift insertion from the IMPACT Project Settings.

How it works

In the latest version of IMPACT for Revit, if the user has made the settings for Lifts in Family or Element definition, then the lifts will be automatically inserted when drawing the element. The rule applies to the following elements: Beams, Prestressed Beams, Columns, Solid Walls, Sandwich walls, Insulated walls, Double walls, Solid Slabs, Form slabs and Prestressed Form Slabs. 

In the following pictures below, are shown two examples of the lift settings - one for the family and one for element definition

Exception from the above-mentioned rule will be for the Hollow core and Prestressed slab elements, where the user has the option to select if the lifts will be inserted "Always" or "Manually".
