Can Anyone Help me With Graitec PowerPack Extension? I can't change the rebar color and their technical support hasn't replied yet

Hi everyone,

 

I’m currently testing the PowerPack for Revit 2024 (they offer a 15-day trial). Since the project is relatively small, I’ll probably finish it before the trial ends and consider purchasing the yearly license later if another project comes up where I find the PowerPack extension necessary, as it simplifies reinforcement detailing.

 

The problem is, I can’t change the rebar colors. In the "Main Bars" settings, the "Bar Color" option is greyed out and locked and I can’t click or modify it at all.

I’ve tried contacting Graitec support via phone and email. I called both their UK and Portugal offices, but no one picked up. I was at least able to leave a voicemail with the Portugal team, but it’s been about three days and I still haven’t heard back. I also emailed both their technical support and sales team, but to no response.

 

I’ve searched through their YouTube tutorials and official documentation, but haven’t found anything that addresses this specific issue.

If anyone here uses the PowerPack for rebar detailing and knows how to unlock or work around this, I’d really appreciate the help. . I'm in a bit of a hurry since the trial is ticking down and I want to finish this project while still in trial period.

I would suggest if it is greyed out it would be using the Default Revit Object Colours for the elements I recall a Colourize Tool which may allow overriding in the Graitec Addin
