Design Review Multi-Editor Functionality

Is it possible for Autodesk to make dwf / dwfx multi person editable??? have it automatically assign a different color for each editor?

 

When we inport different markups into revit, they tend to overlap. this could be solved by multi editor functionality.

Kyle,

 

I don't believe that at all, there are hundreds of file types that have multi-user capabilities. They have rules like who saves first wins if two people save at the same time. If revit has the capabilities of tracking users and assigning each person a color, there is no reason a document can't as well.

 

its just code that needs to be figured out........

Sorry Charles, my 1 liner was not clear.  You are absolutely right that this is possible...anything is possible in software given time and effort.  I was saying that that this is not currently possible in the tools available, but is a good idea.

 

The A360 Team viewing experience is the closest we have for this situation, and we are actively investing in it to be the best way to markup models/sheets from our products.  We can't bring those markups/comments back into Revit at the moment, but rest assured that we recognize the value that could provide.
