# ExportCncFab

Revit C# .NET API add-in to export Revit wall parts to DXF or SAT for CNC fabrication.

This add-in demonstrates various useful aspects along the way, such as:

- Implement the external application
- Create ribbon panel and command push buttons
- Load icons from assembly resources
- Select wall parts and handle optional pre-selection
- Export wall part elements to DWF or SAT
- Manage, create and populate shared parameter values

For more information, please refer to
[The Building Coder](http://thebuildingcoder.typepad.com) and the 12-minute
[Revit to CNC Direct YouTube video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uNJ9RTppqoU).
