New! Element Detailing - Create Drawings

Generate views and drawings for a selected group of equal elements.

With the Element Detailing feature, you can now easily generate views and drawings for a selected group of identical elements.

In the Drawing Settings, you can define a custom drawing configuration. This configuration provides full flexibility, allowing you to choose which views to create and include on the drawing sheet:

  • Elevation views
  • Section views
  • 3D view
  • Schedule views

You can also select a Title Block from those available in your project and specify whether to place a single view per sheet or multiple views on one sheet.

Save one or multiple drawing settings (configurations) with a name. A list of saved settings is available for each group in the main dialog. Once you've assigned drawing settings to the groups, preselect multiple rows or groups and click Create Drawings to generate them all at once.

When drawings are created in the main tool dialog, the sheet name (Drawing name) and date of creation (Drawing Created) are displayed. The drawing name is assigned by default as a combination of the element number and the filter name. Also, you have the option to view or remove the sheet if needed:

New Rebar Numbering Improvements

Added a tooltip to explain how to use padding when numbering rebar groups.

  • To apply padding to your numbering, specify the total number of digits using zeros and set a starting number. For example, to generate numbers like 001, 002…010… set the Prefix/Padding to "000" and the Start Number to 1:

  • A progress bar is displayed while analyzing a partition, with the option to cancel the operation if needed.

When analyzing a partition, you will now see a progress bar with detailed information about the ongoing operations. Additionally, you have the option to stop the analysis and rebar grouping process if it takes too long:

  • Now you can export and use the NoGrps parameter in XML export (only for Sweden).

We’ve added a new parameter to rebar groups called NVNoGrps, which represents the number of rebar groups. This parameter is exported to the XML as the value of <NoGrups>:

Licensing - Login

Login after start of Revit or after you have logged out.

You no longer must restart Revit to login again. We have added a Login option in Help ribbon to allow you to login after you started Revit/Naviate or after you have logged out from Naviate.

If you skipped login at startup, or was off-line, you might have to click on Release and Refresh tool (see below) to obtain a license after you have logged in.

Note! You cannot logout and login with another account; you can only login using same email address that was used at startup of Revit/Naviate.

Licensing - Release and Refresh

Release licenses or get access to Naviate without restarting Revit after long inactivity.

We have added a new tool in Help ribbon to release licenses and re-activate your licenses after a long period of inactivity. You no longer must restart Revit/Naviate after a long period of inactivity or sleep mode.

When clicking on Release and Refresh, any used license will be returned, and licensing system is re-initialized. You will be asked to login if needed. 

Fixes

  • Licensing: Less risk of conflicts with other add-ins causing Naviate Ribbon to be inaccessible.
  • New Rebar Numbering: Better support when switching between projects while the tool is open.
  • New Rebar Numbering: Fixed issues when reporting removed bars from the Area reinforcement.
  • New Rebar Numbering: Fixed issues when sorting rebar number values that contain a rebar prefix.
  • Rebar Presentation: Added info message when trying to use the function in 3D view.
  • 2D Reinforcement (Norwegian version only): Fixed presentation for some rebar shapes in the Bar Mark Schedule.
