• Standalone activation’s can be force released on the management portal.
• Settings can now be locked by managers in the settings file and will not be able to be changed by users in the UI.
• Log level can now be set in settings allowing smaller log files and better responsiveness during normal operation.
• New setting in update checks to show or hide pre-release versions.  If turned on, beta versions will be shown in the update list and when checking for new versions.  If unchecked only full public releases will be shown.

REVMo8 – A Revit Productivity Suite

From the Autodesk App Store:

REVMo8 greatly simplifies working in Autodesk® Revit®.

Powerful tools to improve productivity and speed up your design process.

Use REVMo8 to do much of your work in Revit from drawing grid lines, 3D Stick Frame, 3D modeling, visibility control, material takedown and more. Every step is fully automated and hides the complexity of doing it manually. REVMo8 is perfect for those new to Revit.

Features include:

• Building Boundary and Column Grids: Quick and easy way to generate column grids and dimensions. Grids are automatically shown in 3D view as well as plan views.
• 3D Stick Frame: Manual and Automatic generation of 3D stick frames. Stick Frames are used for 3D modeling as well as massive buildings visibility control.
• Level Manager: Tools to manage all aspects of levels operations without dealing with the graphics screen.

Compare Levels

From the Autodesk App Store:

This tool is designed to compare the linked file levels with the current project levels.

It will check the level name and elevation.

It will fix the level elevation to match the linked file levels elevation.

Free ReviTea Grid/Level

From the Autodesk App Store...

Trim and Extend tool doesn't work with Grid and Level. Extent end of Grid and Level have two modes: 3D model extent mode and 2D view specific extent mode. It's not easy to switch between two extent modes and drag their ends, especially if there are lots of Grids or Levels. It's tedious to click one by one to show or hide bubbles of many Grids or Levels. ReviTea Datum tools could make your work easy.

• Trim Grids tool works similarly to the Trim and Extend tool of Autodesk® Revit®. With it you can easily trim or extend one or more Grids to a boundary defined by Grid, Level, Reference Plane or Detail Line.
• Trim/Extend Grid 3D: Trim or extend Grid 3D extents to the reference (Grid, Level, Reference Plane or Detail Line) as a boundary. Grids 2D extent will switch to 3D extent.
• Trim/Extend Multiple Grids 3D: Trim or extend multiple Grids 3D extents to the reference (Grid, Level, Reference Plane or Detail Line) as a boundary. The extent end of a Grid that is close to the boundary is trimmed or extended. Grids 2D extents will switch to 3D extents.
• Trim/Extend Grid 2D: Trim or extend a Grid 2D extent to the reference (Grid, Level, Reference Plane or Detail Line) as a boundary. Grids 3D extents will switch to 2D extent.
• Trim/Extend Multiple Grids 2D: Trim or extend multiple Grids 2D extents to the reference (Grid, Level, Reference Plane or Detail Line) as a boundary. The extent end of a Grid that is close to the boundary is trimmed or extended. Grids 3D extents will switch to 2D extents.
• Set Grids 3D Height: Set Grids 3D (model) extents in vertical direction by defining levels and offset.
• Trim Levels tool works similarly to Trim and Extend tool of Revit. With it you can easily trim or extend one or more Levels to a boundary defined by Grid, Reference Plane or Detail Line.
• Trim/Extend Level 3D: Trim or extend Level 3D extents to the reference (Grid, Reference Plane or Detail Line) as a boundary. Levels 2D extent will switch to 3D extent.
• Trim/Extend Multiple Levels 3D: Trim or extend multiple Levels 3D extents to the reference (Grid, Reference Plane or Detail Line) as a boundary. The extent end of a Level that is close to the boundary is trimmed or extended. Levels 2D extents will switch to 3D extents.
• Trim/Extend Level 2D: Trim or extend a Level 2D extent to the reference (Grid, Reference Plane or Detail Line) as a boundary. Levels 3D extents will switch to 2D extent.
• Trim/Extend Multiple Levels 2D: Trim or extend multiple Levels 2D extents to the reference (Grid, Reference Plane or Detail Line) as a boundary. The extent end of a Level that is close to the boundary is trimmed or extended. Levels 3D extents will switch to 2D extents.  
• Switch Bubbles can show or hide multiple Grids/Levels bubbles according to a boundary defined by Grid, Level, Reference Plane or Detail Line.

ADN Plugin of the month Feb 2012: Level Generator

The February ADN Plugin of the Month is Level Generator. This add-in generates multiple levels with a single command, as well as the corresponding plan and ceiling views.

As with all ADN Plugins of the Month, the source code is provided.

The add-in may be downloaded from the Autodesk Developer Network website.

Selection Master by Revolution Design

Robust Filter Capabilities with Selection Master from Revolution Designs.
















Selection Master supports six types of filters:

• Parameter
• Level - Level filters recognize level parameter, work plane, reference level, and schedule level so all offset beams, etc. are included.
• Family
• Category
• Phase Created
• Phase Demolished

The Selection Master full interface can be used to create filters based on any of these properties or combine as many filters as desired to refine the set. Find all first floor walls created in phase 2 or simply find every element related to the second floor level.

Find What Objects are Associated with Levels Using the "Get Level" Add-on

Get Level allows users to quickly see what elements are associated with a level, making it easy to determine if it is safe to delete a level or not. It cal also be used to select all elements on a level, or select and show elements associated with a level even more selectively.
