I try not to dabble or indulge my personal stuff on this blog too much, apart from Revit being my personal thing, but I was wandering around downtown Billings, Montana (Big Sky Country) the last couple of evenings and passed this structure a couple times. The second time by, tonight, I felt compelled to snap a couple of "pitchurs". This structure is known as Sky Point and I was pleasantly surprised to find it on Wikipedia.

Hi all, I've had to enable comment moderation as apparently I must have used some "key" words in my most recent posts. I've had several spam comments I've had to remove. Therefore with moderation enabled there may be some delay on comments appearing on the blog after you've posted. Thanks, -R.

So. As any good Revit user knows, its will nigh impossible to make a dimension lie. Sure you can adjust the rounding value, and you can make the text super small (and write your own), but there was never way to just make that dimension string report and out right lie. Well., you still can't. However! We've been given the next best thing. We can now insert text to replace the string value.

Another neat little new feature of 2009 that they've snuck in is some upgrades to the warning's dialog box. You can now export the Review Warnings dialog as an html file for review later, or as you address the warnings in your model. The other really neat new feature is the "Warning Button" that now becomes available in the Options Bar if you select an element that has a warning attached to it.

So while most people will probably be really excited by the new rendering engine in Revit 2009 (congrats to the Factory BTW). There are lots of other small things that got added. One thing that I stumbled upon, which I don't recall being documented (yet), is a new control handle for wall's who have had their join condition dis-allowed. What is supposed to be particulary useful about this feature is that it is available on wall join conditions that previously we couldn't edit, for instance when y

This comment was just received from the posting entitled, “How I Passed the LEED AP V2.2 Exam” I thought the readers of this blog would appreciate another point of view on what to study for the test. The comments starts below: “Just returned from the exam,…passed,…170 – no style points awarded thank goodness. I failed my first test (165) by taking the exam lightly.
