    <title>idea Display .rvt file version on the Open dialog en Revit Ideas</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;Many firms have some tricky naming scheme to figure out which version of Revit an .rvt file is created in.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If the version of the file was displayed in the Open dialog box, it would make it much less likely to attempt to open with the wrong version.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Revit must already be reading the .rvt to determine if it's a Central file or not, so why not grab the version while you're in there?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;It could even color code the text to better warn you if &lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;FONT color="#FF6600"&gt;you're about to upgrade a file&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt; or if &lt;STRONG&gt;&lt;FONT color="#FF0000"&gt;it's in a newer version&lt;/FONT&gt;&lt;/STRONG&gt;.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;To be honest, we should know before we open the file so as to not start with the wrong version. &amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;CTC offers a very good tool for determining which version of a revit file before opening, but if we have a method to determine which version before we open the file would I think be much better. &amp;nbsp;I suggest to have a open from the windows explorer.&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;It would be nice if there was a version visibility option for Revit file types. So you know what a project was saved at before you open it.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Great Idea! Selecting a revit file in the open file dialogue could parse the revit version.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I agree with Springfield. An option to to open with the file version or upgrade would be awesome. Could start from this version forward type of thing.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;This is fantastic! Couldn't agree more. Currently, my office is including the Revit version in the file name to prevent any mishaps.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I think that this is really simple to do. Every windows file has a bunch of properties associated with it. All that needs to happen if for Revit to write a version property. Once that property is written it can be inspected by any software and displayed in some convenient way.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi Everyone,&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;In Revit 2019.&amp;nbsp;we added the ability to see the version of the Revit file when it is clicked on in the open dialog.&amp;nbsp; We'd like your feedback if this new feature helps with this and what else is needed.&amp;nbsp; We know this doesn't fully address this idea, so we are keeping it as accepted.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hey Harlan, I hate to be a rainmaker on your "implemented" parade, but 2019.1 &lt;EM&gt;removed&lt;/EM&gt; the ability to see the model version number.

      <description>&lt;P&gt;hmmm, it is still there if you go to the "Open" button and browse for a file that way.&amp;nbsp; I take it you would like it to appear in the tool tip on Revit Home as well? :).&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Ah... silly me. Probably would be a good idea to add it to the tooltip since an accidental open/upgrade of a model will make that model show in the recent files page. Not that this will fix "stupid", of course... &lt;img class="lia-deferred-image lia-image-emoji" src="https://forums.autodesk.com/html/@C387DD3F79D38545E682333768222916/emoticons/1f609.png" alt=":cara_guiñando_un_ojo:" title=":cara_guiñando_un_ojo:" /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
