Clarity Task Server Configuration to Always Hit OK

This is done at your own risk and will apply to all models on this task server that have the configuration files modified.


WARNING
Modifying the ClarityTaskTray.exe.config and setting it to “true” will “Always hit the OK button, if there is one”, we feel like this is at least a little bit dangerous, so we don’t have it on by default.  There will still be dialogs this won't work on, since not all dialogs have an OK response.

Make a copy of the original config file before modifying it so you have a backup. If you edit the config file incorrectly the task server may not work.

Process

  • Config file location:
    • Make a copy of the config file prior to editing it.
    • C:\Program Files\IMAGINiT Technologies\Clarity Task Server for Revit
    • Rename the copy as shown below

              

  • Exit the Clarity task tray
  • Edit the ClarityTaskTray.exe.config with Notepad
    • C:\Program Files\IMAGINiT Technologies\Clarity Task Server for Revit\exe.config
  • Add the following entry above <!—Options as shown below
    • <add key="CheckForOKCancel" value="true" />

            

  • Save the file
    • If you get a permission error when trying to save, do a saveas and Save as type is All files. Save it to the desktop then drag and drop it back into the folder.

           

  • Make sure it is still seen as a config file.

Test Clarity Task Services

  • From the Desktop Icon, open Clarity Task Tray for Revit to start the task tray again.
  • Send a Revit task to confirm that it picks up the task.
