    pattygale on The Revit.ini File
    Jun 14, 2013 6:31 PM
    Yes, Revit 2014 does support the CustomColor settings. Revit supports more settings than we have documented here...we plan to add more to the list over time as resources permit. -- Patty Gale, Autodesk Revit User Assistance Team

    pattygale on Cutting Rectangular Openings in Walls
    Mar 13, 2013 4:56 PM
    Regardless of whether you add a dimension to the opening, the only way to edit the size of the opening is using shape handles, or by using <a href=http://wikihelp.autodesk.com/Revit/enu/2013/Help/00001-Revit_He0/1468-Document1468/1744-Annotati1744/1745-Dimensio1745/1786-Listenin1786> listening dimensions</a>. If you lock the dimension, you cannot change the shape of the opening in that direction. -- Patty Gale, Autodesk Revit User Assistance Team
    pattygale on Configuring Revit for Local RPC Content
    Mar 13, 2013 3:57 PM
    @cprice: thanks for sharing your experiences with us. It may be that the latest Archvision plug-in works more intelligently and so does not require these manual steps. They may be required only when you have a special setup. I'm checking into this with Revit Development and will let you know what I learn. -- Patty Gale, Revit User Assistance Team
    pattygale on Adding Keynote Categories
    Mar 8, 2013 1:08 PM
    Tony, thanks for your suggestions. I have reorganized the pages as you suggested, and attached the PDF to the new topic "Keynote Text File." Something didn't work quite right when you attached that file to this topic, so I was able to save and reattach the PDF to that topic, and I have deleted the draft version of this topic. If you'd like to add or modify information on these pages, please feel free to do so. I'm sure that other users can benefit from your experience. Thanks for contributing to the Revit wiki! -- Patty Gale, Autodesk Revit Assistance Team

    Mike: For Revit 2013, we have added information about <a href=http://wikihelp.autodesk.com/Revit/enu/2013/Help/00007-Creating0> Creating Loadable Families</a>. Look at <a href=http://wikihelp.autodesk.com/Revit/enu/2013/Help/00007-Creating0/0006-Choosing6> Choosing a Family Template</a>; is that the information you're looking for? Most of the information will be the same for 2012 as for 2013. -- Patty Gale, Autodesk Revit User Assistance Team
    pattygale on Plan View Direction
    Feb 27, 2013 1:30 PM
    That's correct. The View Direction type parameter is only available for structural plan views. It is not available for floor plan views or reflected ceiling plan views. -- Patty Gale, Autodesk Revit User Assistance Team

    Hmmm...I haven't heard of any way to control the browser for those functions, but let me ask the developers, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
    pattygale on Ramp Instance Properties
    Dec 20, 2012 1:40 PM
    You are correct: the ramp arrow was never properly implemented in the software, so it doesn't show in drawings. One of several loose strings left hanging. :-( -- Patty Gale, Autodesk Revit User Assistance Team
    pattygale on How Linking to AutoCAD Files Works
    Dec 7, 2012 4:42 PM
    You can use the <a href=http://wikihelp.autodesk.com/Revit/enu/2013/Help/00001-Revit_He0/2278-Collabor2278/2279-Linked_M2279/2326-Managing2326> Manage Links dialog</a> to identify which CAD files have been linked into a Revit project. However, Revit does not provide a way to identify the views in which each linked file appears. Have you checked the user forums to see if anyone has solved this problem? There are some clever people out there! -- Patty Gale, Autodesk Revit User Assistance Team

    • rlarzelereTue Oct 25, 2011 9:21 amHi Patty, that was a really helpful clarification on editing existing schedules.
    • JohnSprungSun Mar 18, 2012 12:27 pmHello Patty,
      I have been attempting to access a number of files referenced in many of the wikihelp pages only to get directed to an error page :
      Bad Request (Name contains invalid characters)
      attempting to get to :
      http://wikihelp.autodesk.com/@api/deki/files/43880/=056_Revit_Tip_Easily_Creating_Cables_In_Space.pdf

      This is not the only broken link in the wikihelp area, I have found about 5 others within the past hour.

      Can the links be updated, or removed to stop many people searching for answers only to be denied at the last step.

      I am attempting to research solutions for many of my students problems, and having a working reference area helps; directing people to an online solution (only) and then finding it does not work creates both frustrated users and sets up distrust for any of the online support tools.

      JSpr.
    • BIMTIMThu Oct 18, 2012 3:24 pmHey Patty, I removed the comments that you incorporated into the splitting topography page. I have broken topography many times, and learned how to do some nice things with them. I can help author some useful pages if you require.

      - Tim
