Hi Marco

 

We think we can solve the sorting of the tree as you very right indicate for the next version. We will get our programmer to look into that straight away.

Regarding point nr 2, the program currently runs as modal window, that means it needs tha main focus of the Revit. We understand the convenience of having the program running as a independent window, but by having it running as modal we can perform tasks faster and in many cases safer with a compact code. in order to make the program modeless that would imply a signinficant change of code that we do not see being feasible at this stage, but perhaps later on the line we mat introduce it.

Hi,

 

This is my first post so I hope I am posting it in the right section :)

I started using Database Editor for some days now and I encountered 2 areas in which I would like to give some feedback for improvement:

1. Opening the Database Editor, when for example wanting to work on Doors, the category parameters are not in alphabetical (or any other I could think of) order, which makes it hard to find them when you have certain categories with 100s of parameters.

Would it be possible to add a "sort parameters" function in the Browser tab and in the Fields window? It would improve UI quite a lot in my opinion.

2. When using the plugin, the revit window is blocked.

Is there a way to have the DB Editor open and usable while at the same time use the revit window to move around the views and sheets?

Thanks for any reply and to archi for such a useful plugin!

 

Marco.
