Roundup – For May 15-21, 2017, New and Updated Revit and Navisworks Add-ins on the Autodesk App Store

The week of May 15, 2017 was a productive one with regards to Revit add-ins on the Autodesk App Store. Three new add-ins were published, and another twelve were updated, including seven with 5-star ratings.

For new add-ins, Classify is for managing assembly codes, doXenter Transfer is for transferring large files for free, and the free Transfer Family Parameters is for copying parameters from one family to others.

For updates, BIM Batch SuiteCTC BIM Project SuiteKeynote Manager +, the free PCL PartsLabReports, and workFlow all received relatively significant refreshes.

Based on our recent poll, this is the first week that we're also covering Navisworks add-ins. Navisworks to OBJ Converter was added and Group Clashes, for automatically grouping and sorting clashes, was updated.

False Updates

Most weeks there are a number of add-ins listed on the App Store as having been updated when they appear not to have been. We call these false updates.

We suspect false updates occur because developers have the ability in the App Store database to mark an 'update' without changing the version number. This is advantageous to developers because it moves their add-ins up in the App Store  'Newest' list. Also, authors of multiple add-ins on the App Store may use the practice to group their add-ins together. And some may mistakenly not change the version number for a legitimate update.

We verify false updates by comparing the current version numbers with our last posts about the add-ins. This is work for us, though, hopefully, value for you.

In the hopes that the App Store will someday fix this loophole or developers will cease the practice, we list the developers and their add-ins that, though marked as updated, were not.
