What Revit Wants: Export List of Missing Material Images from Your Revit Model

[luke.johnson]

I have posted about SysExporter a few times before, but here is a little reminder... You can use SysExporter to grab text from almost any dialog box in any program in Windows. Let's say you have a list of missing materials in a Revit Render dialog box. You can use SysExporter to grab that list so you can find the material images and rectify the problem.

Here's how:

1. Render a scene
2. When the missing material dialog pops up, start SysExporter
3. Find the dialog in the list (you can use the target to drag and drop onto the Rendering dialog)
4. Once you find the list of names, you can copy / paste them, or export to a file
5. Find the missing materials and point your Revit install at them using the Render Appearance Paths in Revit Options.

You can get it here.
