These are created in the “Object Styles” dialog. We can now create reference plane subcategories. In 2017, one of my longest running wishes was granted. In the mid-year release (2016 R2) we got the ability to rename reference planes in canvas. While recording my latest courses for the LinkedIn () library, I left the software running for nearly an entire week without a single crash.
Further, I can say from first-hand experience, that the “mean time between failures” (a metric used by all software companies) is greatly improved. This year in 2017 we see improvements when drawing walls, ducts and irregular crop regions. This has been improving with each release for the last couple years. You no longer have to wait for the entire model to regen when parts of it are not displayed in the current view. In the last several releases, the Revit team has been working hard to make the software perform better and redraw views faster. (I have a link below) And finally, Revit (and the whole Autodesk product line) has a spiffy new icon! But you can contact Autodesk or your local reseller for complete details on this new sales model. This change only means that all new licenses are now subscriptions. (Don’t worry, your existing perpetual licenses are still… well… perpetual).
If you are not interested in the tools from one of the other disciplines, you can turn those ribbons off on your system, but regardless all of the functionality will be there “under-the-hood.” Autodesk has also revised the subscription model and eliminated new perpetual license sales. This unified version contains all of the functionality of the previous three flavors. Revit Architecture, MEP and Structure will no longer be sold as separate products. There are many new enhancements including some that have been on folk’s wish lists for some time now… (new text editor or depth cueing anyone?) As well as some small enhancements that slipped in under the radar (I am particularly happy about some of the family editor enhancements).īefore sharing some of my favorites in more detail, allow me to mention that one of the biggest changes this year is a difference in the way that Revit is distributed and packaged. It is that time of year again, no not Springtime (though it has certainly been lovely here in Chicago this week), no it is the time of year when Autodesk releases the latest version of Revit! Revit 2017 is here and what a release it is.
