View Filter Order

Anonymous — Mon, 07 Aug 2017 20:26:17 GMT

Hello,

I wrote a plugin that can copy view filter settings (Name, visibility, projection / surface etc.), however I cannot seem to access the original order, and unfortunately the filters are not stored in the correct order.

I found a post from a few years ago that was aware of this problem. I am hoping this has been fixed, it is literally one int value to add to the api. Here is the original post:

Any help?

Dear Jed,

The wishlist item CF-1486 [Need API to order the view filters on a view] that was raised based on the original thread ended up being closed again, since the original requester said it was of little importance to him.

I suggest you do two things:

Submit this as an entry in the Revit Idea Station and ensure it gets many votes. Maybe it is already in there?
Submit a business case explaining the importance of this wish for you, your customers, the community, Autodesk, your revenue, etc. to underline its importance.

I hope this helps.

Cheers,

Jeremy
