I would think you could modify the dialog box to be like Windows Explorer with the search feature in the upper right of the dialog box. This modification could be included with Scott Hendrick's idea of the folder tree displaying on the left side of the dialog box. Show More

I think the create2d gives a poor representation of our hard work in design. The plus signs for rise/drops and flex pieces should closer represent our printed drawings. Would love to see this happen. Show More

Would like to see the more rebust version of CADmep renumbering available in ESTmep and CAMduct. Show More

The closeDWG setting in the spool.ini only applies to the last spool that is processed. We often spool 25+ spools at a time, which often locks or crashes autocad. Suggested options: 1) create bspool, so that when it runs, it runs in the background and never makes itself the current window. it's impossible to work in AutoCAD when it is spool, but also hard to work in any other application as AutoCAD will make itself the active window repeatedly through the process. 2) modify the "closedwg" option to close each drawing as it is spools (before it starts to process the next spool.dwg), currently, when the Closedwg is set to 1, it only closes the very last spool processed. perhaps closing windows as it goes will help to minimize crashes.

I'm not just going to make a request here. Requests are often fulfilled in later versions, and this one is needed in the current version due to project requirements.   Let's start with an observation:   I detail some ductwork in Fab CADmep, then create the MAJ file. I then load this MAJ file into Revit. From Revit, I export the MAJ file back out to a separate file.   I use OPENJOB to load the second MAJ file into Fab CADmep now and turn on TAGS. The item numbers are there. They even maintain their prior positioning and rotation.   What this tells me is that somewhere in the Revit environment, this information is not getting lost if it is already there, but it is also not made very accessible to users.     To research this, I've loaded up the RevitAPI libraries into Visual Studio and browsed around in the object browser, looking for things to hunt through. To do the actual hunting once keyed in on something, I'm using Dynamo 9 to select these objects in Revit and watch those specific properties of the Revit objects. Things like Parameters, Shared Parameters, BuiltInParameters, etc. I've found quite a bit of things that I didn't know were there so far, but haven't yet found a field that has the item numbers that I'm expecting.   So does anyone have an inkling as to where in the API structure that I should look? I'd like to put together an addin that will communicate between accessible parameters and wherever these item numbers are being stored. But this is a lot to hunt through.   I'm also a little concerned that there's a conversion that happens to the string formatting on the way in and out. If that's the case, I may have seen the field I'm looking for and went right on past it because it didn't appear correct at first glance. Show More

Installing a Shortcut on the desktop to bring up the CADmep help (doesn't show up on Win8/8.1 anyway) as well as a command/icon inside CADmep to bring up help would be nice.   Still have users referencing those big old manual from the TSI User group meeting years ago because they don't know the help file is installed on the system.     Show More
