QuickFamily

One-click 2D family creation for Revit

Free Revit plugin that allows users to create 2D families (profiles, generic annotations, detail items) instantly by selecting 2D elements and assigning a name and category, eliminating the need to navigate the family editor.

Why This Tool Exists

⚠️

The Problem

Creating 2D families in Revit requires opening the complex family editor, creating new families, and following specific workflows. AutoCAD users expect quick block creation, making Revit's approach time-consuming for reusable 2D elements like profiles, annotations, and detail components.

✅

The Solution

QuickFamily streamlines the process: select 2D elements in a Revit view, click the QuickFamily button, assign a name and category, and the plugin instantly creates a reusable 2D family. This mimics AutoCAD's block creation workflow within Revit.

Exactly what this tool uses and how

📥

Input

What it needs

Required: 2D elements in Revit view (lines, text, shapes)

Optional: Custom family parameters via Revit UI

Formats: Revit project geometry

📤

Output

What you get

Format: Revit 2D family file

Fields: Family name, Family category, Family type with 2D geometry

⚙️

Algorithm

How it works

Model: Deterministic geometry conversion (not AI-based)

Accuracy: Not applicable (deterministic conversion process)

🔒

Privacy

How your data is protected

Retention: Plugin operates locally within Revit; no cloud data transmission for family creation

Training: No user data training; plugin is deterministic

Compliance: GDPR compliant (Camilion Consulting & Development is GDPR-registered in Spain), No personal data collection for basic plugin operation

🔌

API

Integration

Endpoint: Contact vendor for API access (plugin uses Revit SDK directly)

Method: Not publicly documented

Use Cases

• Rapid 2D family creation for reusable architectural symbols and annotations
• Converting CAD-style blocks workflow to Revit families
• Detail item creation for construction documents
• Generic annotation family generation for repeatable callouts and labels
• Streamlined profile family creation for moldings and details
