Roundup – New and Updated Revit Add-ins on the Autodesk App Store for the Week of November 29, 2015

This week was one of the busiest on the Autodesk App Store in recent memory with nearly 30 add-ins either added or updated. New add-ins included HazyView, for adding a sense of depth to elevation views and the like.

Revit 2016 support was added for Keynote Manager +, SOFiSTiK Reinforcement Generation, and EasyDimension. 2015 support was added for Sheet Manager and Sheet Manager Lite.

The IFC 2015 and IFC 2016 add-ins were updated to include many bug fixes and to add some new features and enhancements.

There were some updates to the popular HatchKit add-ins too, and Archisoft dropped updates to Export Schedule, Number, and Topo Align.

Speaking of what's changed, "About this version" information was added to the App Store some time ago, probably while I was on hiatus. This week I incorporated some of that information into this article to make it easier to discover the nature of updates. With so many add-ins listed this week, I kind of regretted that decision, but hopefully it will make these weekly articles more useful to the readership.

Kindly know that Revit Add-ons is ad supported. Please visit the site and check out the wares of our great lineup of advertisers, including Archvision, RTVTools, INVIEWLabs (Unifi), Ideate Software, Revit Works, CTC Express Tools, Vabi Software, 3DCONNEXION and Xrev. I and our advertisers will greatly appreciate it!
