HIGHLIGHTS
•Automatically Generated Preview Images
The days of spending hours on end configuring specific views and/or capturing images manually to obtain beautiful Revit family preview images are in the past! We’re pleased to introduce automatically generated preview images.
Company Admins can now configure what data types are collected when users sync models associated with Project Analytics. We’ve also provided a setting that allows Company Admins to control whether a progress bar is displayed during the data collection process.
These options can be found on the “Settings” tab at both the Company and Project levels within Project Analytics.
•Search Updates
We have made some updates to our search capabilities, including:
•Updating the “Details” search result display
•Adding the “Request Update” option to the right-click menu in search results
•The default selection of all search sources upon logging in (unless connected to a model with pinned sources selected)
•The ability to leave the search input field blank when performing a search for all files within selected search sources.
These enhancements are just the tip of the iceberg for the many exciting search developments we have in the works and will be available to you in a future release!
