The Week That Was in Revit Add-ons for Feb 4-10, 2019

Revit

New

From the Autodesk App Store, we posted about the free Parameter String Search, Section Box for Autodesk® Revit®, and the free Zoom To Selection.

From around the Internet, we posted about the free Naviate Rebar Extension, QARC4REVIT, ‘Australia’s First Comprehensive Revit Content Delivery System,’ and the free Raccorderie Metalliche Product Line Placer.

Updated

From around the Internet, we posted about Guardian v1.4.0.

We also made what will be perhaps the last needed update to our Revit 2019 Product Enhancements from Autodesk article, this one for the much-awaited update of Autodesk Enhanced DWG Exporter for Revit.

Application Development

Following last week's announcement that Autodesk Forge's Design Automation for Revit had entered public beta, there was a lot of associated news. We posted about a couple of Design Automation examples, Revit Window Family Creation and Revit Project / Family / Template Upgrader.

We also shared Preparing an Add-in for Forge's Design Automation for Revit, as well as its associated Revit add-in (source code), IfcSpaceZoneBoundaries, for retrieving Spaces and Zones and their boundaries from linked IFC files.

Dynamo

We posted about Bang! for Dynamo updates, including it now being open source.
