Best New Features in Revit 2018.2

update Oct 14, 2017

This is a minor update that makes the user interface more efficient for some specific tools.

Here is the complete autodesk blog post.

 

 

Improvements to Fill Patterns Tool

In older versions of Revit, you had to re-import a pattern file each time you wanted to change the scale of a custom pattern. In this new patch, you can change the scale value without having to reimport again.

The dialog box is now much user friendly: you can adjust the size of the window and select multiple patterns at once.

 

 

Collapse the Entire Project Browser

You can now collapse the entire project browser by right-clicking and selecting "Collapse All". The same can be done to expand the browser.

 

 

Better Selection for Section Box

Adjusting the extents of a section box used to be tricky, the blue arrows could be hard to access when some objects were just behind them. Now, the blue arrows will have priority over objects behind, make it easier to select.

 

 

Other Improvements:

  • Revit will remember the last location when loading families.
  • Revit will remember the column width spacing in the type properties dialog box.
