Access options bar

[jeroen.van.halderen]

Dear developers,

I'm working on a tool for Revit and I would like to place controls on the Revit options bar, but so far I wasn't succesfull. Does anyone know how to place controls for a revit plugin on the options bar?

I would like to see this functionality in the Revit API eventually, that would make the Revit API even more powerfull.

Thanks in advance!

I am not aware of any such possibility.

For a feature request, you could submit a wish for this functionality to the Revit Idea Station.

Whenever you require new or enhanced Revit or Revit API functionality, the Revit Idea Station is the place to go.

Please search there for a corresponding wish list entry for the suggested functionality and add your comments to it, or create a new one, if none already exists:

https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-ideas/idb-p/302

Tag it as an API wish:

https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-ideas/idb-p/302/tab/most-recent/label-name/api

Ensuring that a wish gets as many votes as possible helps underline its importance to you and the rest of the developer community.

The Revit Idea Station is currently one of the main driving input forces for Revit API enhancements.

The Revit development team look there. Your comment here in the discussion forum might be overlooked.

Thank you!

Thank you for the suggestion, I'll post it on the Revit Idea station with the API tag.

By the way, is the Revit Idea station the same as the"Revit ideas" forum?
