Transfer Between Projects

Copy view templates from one open Revit project into another.

When to use it

Use this when starting a project from a file that is missing the office templates, or when a standards model should push templates into an active job.

Why it exists

Revit’s Transfer Project Standards copies more than you asked for. This tool moves only the view templates you pick.

How to use it

  1. Open both projects

    The source and destination must both be open in the same Revit session.

  2. Open the tool

    On the ✚ Annon App tab, open View Templates and choose Transfer Between Projects.

  3. Pick source and templates

    Choose the source project, then check the templates to copy.

  4. Transfer

    Copy them into the current project. Rename or assign them next if names collide with local standards.

Transfer view templates between open Revit projects
Pick a source project and the templates to copy.

Keep in mind

  • After a transfer, purge unused templates with Purge View Setup if extras came along from an older standards file.
  • Assign the new templates to views with Assign View Templates.
