Customise Ribbon

[Anonymous]

How might I remove/declutter the Ribbon of commands I do not want used - either by all, or select, people. In other words, is there an Autocad-.cui-like interface to customise user workspaces beyond what is presently presented in the options dialog? Preferably without tinkering in the API

I'm looking at:

REMOVE

Import CAD

Explode .dwg

HIDE

Ramp

Soffit

Shaft

Insulation

Text

Purge

RESTRICT

In-Place Mass

Line patterns

Line styles

Object styles

Project Parameters

Project Units

Project Information

Location

Coordinates

Position

Manage Links

Phases

ENABLE PERSONAL PREFERENCE

Browser Organisation (retained at a local model / user revit.ini level and not commited back to central)

Properies & Browser dialog locations

Currently this is not possible in Revit and I'm not sure if it will ever be possible but if you like I’d suggest leaving feedback at the below link. Information gathered is used to improve the application. Product Contact Link: http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/index?siteID=123112&id=1109794

Thanks for posting.

As @alan.quinn said, it's not possible on the product, but just to be complete, you can do some customization via API (although you said you don't want it).

Hi Augusto,

with the Revit API, you can only add buttons but not remove them, especially not the built-in buttons.

As far as I understand, the user wants to reduce the GUI.

There are certain ways to modify existing buttons (remove, disable, hide), but all of them are unsupported,

meaning you can indeed reduce the content of the Ribbonbar, but only using hacks.
