Is it possible to insert a linked revit file in a similar manner to inserting a xref in CAD?

Sure thing - Go to the "Insert" tab, and pick "Link Revit"
The below is straight from the help file... :beer:
- Open an existing project or start a new project. You will link another project into this project.
- Click Insert tabLink panel (Link Revit).
- In the Import/Link RVT dialog, select the Revit model to link.
- For Positioning, specify the desired option. In most cases, you should select Auto - Origin to Origin. If the current project uses shared coordinates, select Auto - By Shared Coordinates. See Shared Positioning. See Import and Link Options for CAD Formats and Revit Models.
- Click Open.
If you cannot see the linked project in the drawing area, do the following:
- In the view properties, for Discipline, select Coordination. This setting ensures that the view displays elements for all disciplines (architectural, structural, mechanical, and electrical).
- (Optional) To display the linked project in halftone, for Visibility/Graphics Overrides, click Edit. On the Revit Links tab, for the linked project, select Halftone, and click OK. You can select the linked model in a view and drag, copy, paste, move, and rotate it. You can also monitor grids, levels, and other essential elements in the linked project. See Multi-Discipline Coordination.

I am glad you copied this part. I get many complaints that people cant see elements in there model or linked file. It's an easy thing to miss.Originally posted by Munkholm View Post-Alex CunninghamComment
