Hi!

I have deleted a model in BIM 360 Docs but Clarity still runs tasks on it. Has anyone else run into this? I tried to purge the model from the deleted area in BIM 360 and cannot see how to. Besides setting up a file filter for the project, is there anything else I can do? I can foresee this becoming a difficult to manage having to monitor deleted files and filtering them out of our tasks.

Thanks in advance!

Since Clarity 2020, it's been possible to specify worksets on a given task. If you've run the RevitDBExport task, then you could see the worksets to choose from on the "Basic" tab.

Starting in Clarity 2021, it is also possible to specify worksets with BIM360 projects (in this case you must have run the RevitDBExport task at least once).

You can use these workset settings to:

• Improve performance by not opening all worksets
• Control visibility

On the "Advanced" tab, it's also possible to specify wildcards - as well as negative wildcards (such as "don't show anything that includes the word

At to Clarity the option to upload into Revisto.

EllisDon is asking us to discuss using it for our projects.

Our list of task servers in the server console show old task servers, either ones that have been renamed or others that have been decommissioned. I see no way to manage those nor does the documentation describe how the Task Server page is updated. Am I missing information somewhere?

I noted that there is a slight grammar issue on the Completed Tasks tab when there is a task timeout. The description says "… just a delay in processing many task [sic] on one …"

A Project Coordinator (within a project) should be able to manage the metrics for their models.

Currently it requires a Global Project Coordinator role.

It would be very helpful to see all data in the firm metric guidance table, not only when editing the metric's configuration.

It would be nice to have an ignore option for the models listed in the Untracked Models section. This list keeps growing longer every day with temporary models that just add noise to the list.

Model size is not always a good modifier for the metrics threshold values.

At our office we usually deal with different model types: main models (contains rooms and all typical building elements, may be split into multiple models depending on size of project), auxiliary models (usually facades, roof structures etc.), site models, detail models (containing most of the detail views hence a lot of detail components, line work and annotation). All of these have typical characteristics which also means they produce very different metrics, e.g. a detail model containing even a single room should set off alarm bells whereas the

We have some projects that need to use a lot of custom paper sizes. Managing those paper sizes on the host server and multiple task servers is fairly tedious and I was wondering if it wouldn’t be possible to have the task servers “learn” any new paper sizes for the ClarityPDF driver that were created on the host server.

Hello,

In our company we assess our Revit projects via the R: drive created with command subst R: \\svr\projects. This type of a network drive connection makes it working as a local drive for Revit, it doesn't convert it to UNC path. This strategy is chosen with purpose, we see advantages in this approach over the UNC path. We configured the Clarity server and task machines to have the R: as it appears for users. Unfortunately I cannot create a Clarity project with path targeting to the R: drive, it is not in the list:

The substituted R: drive works

A folder structure is constant (more or less) from project to project. It would be very helpful to specify a path for actions relative to the Revit project folder. It would save time on copying tasks from project to project - no need to adjust the UNC path for every project.

Thank you.

I find myself clicking the sort button a lot when creating and copying tasks.  Would be great if there was an auto-sort function

We have a few of projects that are moving from local servers to B360.  At some point in the future they will likely transition back to our server.

Is there a way to change a project that is already setup in Clarity to work on B360 instead of local files?  And then change it back?

please update Online Help Graphics. One example is the help section for the Publish Revit Model task.

How about Studio Prime-level users?

(I believe that Studio Prime is necessary to have access to the API for integrations).

Thanks,

I am creating a room data sheet and I would like to include graphics of the plan that match Revit more closely than the default svgRoom image.

I have a roomimageexport task that appears to capture images from a set of specific plan views in Revit.  I am struggling with formatting the [roomimage] to display an image.

Here is the svgRoom image:

This is the same room in Revit

Are there any resources available (beyond the help) for creating and formatting data sheets?  Specifically room data sheets.
