Use the User Interface Configuration Calculator

As an alternative to controlling Revit tools and analysis features using the Options dialogUser Interface tab, you can define the DisciplineOption setting in the Revit.ini file using a value specified by the UI configuration calculator.

Note: The DisciplineOption setting applies only to Autodesk Revit. It does not apply to Revit LT.

The UI configuration calculator provides a value for the DisciplineOption setting of Revit.ini only. It does not provide values for other Revit.ini settings, which may also be useful for deployments. To get values for other settings, follow the instructions in Prepare a Custom Revit.ini File.

To use the UI configuration calculator

  1. Click this link to open the calculator.
  2. Select the desired tools and analysis features for the target user.

    These features correspond to the Tools and analyses settings in the Configure section on the User Interface tab of the Options dialog.

  3. Record the resulting integer value.
  4. Create a copy of Revit.ini.
  5. Using a text editor, edit Revit.ini.
  6. In the UserInterface section of the file, define the value of DisciplineOption as the integer calculated by the UI configuration calculator.

    Example:

    [UserInterface]
    DisciplineOption=6637
    
  7. When creating a deployment, use the Customize Application Settings option to specify the custom Revit.ini file.
