Aaaand with the 2020 release, it again looks like all the previous years. Very obnoxious.

Aaand with the 2020 release it once again looks like the previous years. This wouldn't be a problem if didn't all have 2, 3, 4 versions of Revit on our computers...but we all do.

Maybe next year they'll change the icon. Until then, will have to keep making my own...

We have various projects which are in different version of revit and as the revit icons are all similar, it's very confusing which revit to open. I usually open pinned icons from taskbar. Of course, we have changed the icon file to different color and adding 18,19,20 etc to differentiate the versions, we would suggest autodesk to make it offically different.

Agreed. Some very helpful folks have created the Revit thumbnail icons to include the release. Check this out. https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/revit-products/learn-explore/caas/simplecontent/content/custo...

Let us know if this works and if possible Accept as Solution if this works.

Thanks for the mention, and the kind words.

 

I recommend using the approach Gordon mentions (on the pragmaticpraxis.com website), which is also the tool i use for automating the icon replacement. If you simple relace the icon in the shortcut itself, it only replaces it for that ONE shortcut.  If you swap the ICO file in the INSTALLERS directory, it replaces it everywhere that program has a shortcut: Start menu, QL bar, Shortcuts on desktops, etc.

 

Also, we had to add a few more platforms, recently. Maya is now in there, as well as a few others. Not everyone agrees with the colors or the organizational methods (all of the autocad verticals are subsets of A, including C3D), but thats the beauty of it not being a public project... i just dont care. Haha

Hello,
Do you can change the color of the revit icon in the next version? it is now unclear which version of revit you have open, especially if 3 different versions are open next to each other.

For example with AutoCAD there is a difference.

The link for these is dead. I have google searched high and low. I can only find this link but the google drive within only contains Revit and AutoCAD. Does anyone still have these available to share?

@Prlx_AaronM That link in the Twitter above and Revit forums are both dead/broken.  I have looked at all the options posted here, that is why I am inquiring.

Yeah. I don't know what to tell you... Something is wrong on your end.

 

Other people have successfully downloaded them as recently as yesterday morning, and Friday afternoon, and Wednesday morning. :shrug:

@twiceroadsfool Can you please update your link to change the Icons?  I keep accidentally opening Revit 2019 instead of 2022.  This would be so helpful to have!!
