I want to make custom analytic construction options available, by adding an additional .xml, and not by editing the existing constructions.xml. Is there someway i can write a manifest that makes my own code interpreted the right way, or is this not possible?
Solved! Go to Solution.
I asked the development team for you. However, they may not even know. I hope someone does. 🙂
Thanks a lot Jeremy!
I appreciate it your help 🙂

Hi Jeremy,
thank you so much for your help!
I really appreciate it. I will post in the Revit ideas forum.
I don't use Export to gbXML, Energy Analysis, Heating and Cooling Loads. The reason i was trying to solve this, was so that the company I work for, could make their glazing units available to users in Revit, instead of having the user manually typing in the technical values of a window.
Cheers! 😊
Thank you for the clarification. I passed it on to the devteam.
They reply:
Thanks for the info. So as I understand, Fredrik want to add his own Analytical Constructions to be available for selection in Revit Window and Door Types. I will forward the request.We did, however, opened up Analytical Properties to be user defined for Window and Door Types in Revit 2020. Maybe that can help? Fredrik could provide a set of predefined types in a Revit template?
