More Control of Edit Places in Open/Save Dialogs

More Control of Edit Places in Open/Save Dialogs

It would be great to have more control of the Edit Places function in the Open and Save dialogs,

 

 

adeskideaPlaces1.PNGWe can add our list of frequently-accessed company standard folders to the Places bar via the Revit.ini (or Options) in our deployments.  However, these shortcuts are placed at the bottom of a list of shortcuts that I've never seen any user actually use, such as My Computer, My Network, Documents, etc.

 

We have to manually re-order the shortcuts to bring our "useful" ones to the top, and sometimes they reset to defaults.  Every time, they reset the BIM 360 shortcut to the top.  

 

 

Can we somehow have more control of the order of these shortcuts via the ini file?  Request to include control of the default shortcuts, as well as the company custom places shortcuts. 

 

This would save time on two fronts: 

1.  The deployment sets the order of the shortcuts, saving each user from having to manually re-order the shortcuts, in both Open and Save dialogs. 

2.  Getting the right shortcuts in front of users that would otherwise locate files "the hard way".

 

 

Example of a partial reset:  (apologies for strange format... Apparently, I haven't quite grasped this editor yet!)
