Adding Project (Geographical) Locations

Ensure common project locations are included in your Revit setup to save you from having to recreate them unnecessarily. Locations can be edited via:

1. • Go to Render Scene Settings dialog (from Settings Menu->Render Scene)
   • Ensure that the 'Use Sun and Shadow Settings from view' option is unchecked
   • Click on the Sun button to go to Sun and Sky settings
   • Go to the Place tab
   • Right-mouse-click in the Cities list, and click Add.
   • Enter the required data (Name, Map, Time Zone, Latitude and Longitude)

The above method adds locations to AR_CITY.uni. This file is typically stored at "C:\Program Files\Revit Architecture 2008\Program\Ar3Redist\UnicodeENU\ar_city.uni", and can be manually edited to include additional locations.

Revit Administrators should ensure that if this file is customised that it is then propagated to all user's computers.
