Dynamo Revit 2.1 is automatically installed in
Revit as an internal add-in.
Updating
Revit does not affect the previous Dynamo versions installed in the previous
Revit release. Dynamo Revit 2.1 includes the following updates.
New nodes and node updates:
- Color Picker node (Thanks to Adam Sheather)
- File.AppendText (Thanks to Radu Gidei)
- GetDirectory Contents with recursive access to subfolders (Thanks again to Radu Gidei)
- Updated ImportExcel node to suppress launching of Excel window (Thanks to Dimitar Venkov)
- Modulo operator (%) now follows the standard behavior of Python, Excel, and Google calculator, returning a modulo which follows the sign of the divisor.
- Dictionary suite of nodes
Improvements to search:
- Faster search
- More accurate keyword matching
- Works when special characters are used
Browser improvements:
- Separation of custom nodes and out-of-the-box nodes in Library
- Reorganization of out-of-the-box nodes to allow for easier browsing
- Nodes without DesignScript equivalents have been renamed without the misleading "dot" notation, e.g., "List.Create" is now "List Create"
Graph authoring improvements:
- Python editor supports multiple windows, re-execution from within editor, and custom template loading
- Introduction of a new auto-lacing option to better predict your node-lacing requirements
- Revit model curves, detail curves, tags, and text notes that are selected are no longer automatically rendered in geometry previews to match other Revit node results and to improve performance
More UI customization capabilities:
- Extensions now supported by the Package Manager
Several fixes are included that focus on reliability, stability, and performance enhancements.
