Revit 2018 Extensions - Freeze drawings

[haydenwse]

It appears that the Freeze drawing command is no longer available in the 2018 Extensions.  Is there any plans to add it?

Same here. Any solutions to that?

Strange solution but it works for me 

copy the files after unzipping them using 7z in these folders

C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2018

C:\ProgramData\Autodesk\Revit\Addins\2017

even if you will not use it in 2017 version

I am the original poster on this thread and have quit using freeze altogether.  I now use Images to take a snap shot of a revit detail and then put that image into legends that can be placed in my piece drawings.  The Freeze command makes very sloppy dwg files that clutter up the Revit model.

I got it to work by using 7-zip to extract it directly to the Revit add-in folder.

Is there never version of previously shared dll files for freeze for the latest's versions of the revit (2021 - 2022 or even 2023)?

It just crashes 2023 upon running it.

I am the OP on this thread and have found that I have no need for "freeze" or anything like it that creates large dwg line drawings that just clutter up the rvt file.  I now create "images" which look and work better and have much smaller impact on the rvt file size.  See post 57 for details.
