The week of November 20, 2017 was a busy one here on Revit Add-ons with 37 posts published.

New

Revit

From the Autodesk App Store, we posted about IDEA StatiCa Connection, for analyzing, designing and checking steel connections and joints, Polygon Select, for selecting elements using irregular polygon shapes, and SheetEz, for more easily and powerfully managing sheets.

From around the Internet, we posted about the free BIMcollab ZOOM, for IFC model viewing and validation.

BIM 360

From the App Store, we posted about the free Voice 360, for controlling the Forge Viewer with voice commands.

Navisworks

From the App Store, we posted about the free BIMSens, for read/write interactions with external data sources.

Autodesk Advance Steel

The previous week, we posted for the first time about BIM 360 add-ins, and posted about all of those on the App Store. This week, we did the same for Autodesk Advance Steel by posting about the following:

We also took the opportunity to update our quick access badges in the right sidebar by adding ones for Autodesk Advance Steel and BIM 360. We also modified the Dynamo one to use the Dynamo Studio logo (even though we prefer the original Dynamo logo) for consistency with the other product-related badges, and arranged them alphabetically. Click on these badges to quickly filter posts by tag values.

Also in the realm of Dynamo, we posted about an academic paper comparing parametric design systems for teaching design computation.

We posted about FLUX slashing their subscription price by 60% amid record growth, and 50% off end-of-year savings on SimLab Composer.
