    Dynamo Tasks: Ability to let Clarity ignore node errors

    In some cases it can't be avoided that certain nodes in a graph throw an error. It would be great if we had a way to mark these nodes in some way (e.g. by renaming them to "ClarityIgnore:Orginal node name") so they don't show up as errors in the log. People tend to get jumpy when they see the word "error" in a log... ;-)

    Create a "Revision Record" and a "Milestone Archive" feature.

    Peter DeRooy · 0 · Posted

    Create a "Revision Record" as part of the project.

    It would show the sheet revisions per model. The current revision could be collected by Model Metrics or dbexport tasks or the Revit Clarity Client addin. Everytime a new revision is added to the project revisions it gets added the  Revision Record.

    Once the current revision is added to a Sheet, That Sheet number and name is added to the Revision Record.

    This would be displayed in a webpage like a schedule to show all the sheets revision history per RVT model for the clarity project. This record should be exported

    Room data sheets: Sum() function for category tables

    Andreas Dieckmann · 0 · Posted

    Similar to the Count() function for category tables in room data sheets, a Sum() function would be very handy - especially if it would work in conjunction with the Count() function.

    Use cases:

    • Sum of window area per window type (and number of units of that type)
    • Sum of shelf length per shelf type (and number of units of that type)
    • etc.

    Navisworks Task - Add save to second folder

    Peter DeRooy · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    In the Navisworks task that is setup on a BIM 360 Design project it would be great to be able to post the NWC to a BIM 360 Folder as well as a local network folder. Right now you have only one option in the after task action. Like the Publish  to Glue Task, Add a folder option in the task body.

    Error on task target missing

    Peter DeRooy · 0 · Posted

    When creating a new project we copy tasks from another project. 

    Once the task is scheduled and runs with a invaild Target it does not even create an error log to look at. This can also happen when a model is renamed. The scheduled task that is pointing to the old model name will not create an error that the target is missing.

    Sync Charts - Labels

    Dave Baldacchino · 0 · Posted

    The Sync charts (maybe others as well that report time) report in seconds. It would be nice to convert this to minutes & seconds instead. Also quite important to have in the label is the username for each data point.

    One-off task not tied to a project

    Dave Baldacchino · 0 · Posted

    Use case: I am a Revit user that would like to set up a one-off task to print a set of PDFs or do some exports, but my project is not set up on Clarity. I would still like to use the power of the Clarity Task Servers without having to set a project up on Clarity. It would be great if I could do this through the Clarity addin and save the configuration out to an external file so I can re-use it if necessary next time.

    Graph in Templates

    Brian Parish · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    Add the ability to predefine and add the Graph tiles to items able to be copied from projects on project setup.  We like to see the same tiles and it take a while to set these up per project

    Add Task Type to Main Column list for Current Tasks.

    Task type is listed in Completed Tasks but not in Current task list.

    Filter on Error Details

    Steve Cardinal · 0 · Posted

    It would be great if we could filter and/or group completed tasks based on error details such as "Task Timeout", "Unable to open revit model", etc. to further drill down into errors and identify common problems

    Dynamo Tasks: Report GUIDs of nodes throwing warnings/errors

    Clarity already reports all warnings that any nodes in a Dynamo workflow might throw. However, especially in larger scripts it is really difficult to find the culprit even with that information at hand. Therefore it would be super useful if Clarity could also report the GUID of the node that is throwing the warning/error.

    Auto- Refresh on Current Task Page

    Peter DeRooy · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    Add a feature to auto-Refresh the the Current Task page.

    Then this could be used like a dashboard that auto updates showing the status of tasks, what task servers are running based on the sort by task server column, and the status of each task.

    Maybe create a dashboard feature that all users can look at in read only mode.

    "Only On Change" option for Launched tasks?

    Matt Mason · 0 · Posted

    Submitted by a customer, and re-posted here for voting:

    Tasks: Add "Only On Change" option to manually ran tasks (Not just scheduled)

    Under Tasks the "Only on change" Option is only available when you go to schedule a task, and unavailable for when you want to manually run a task. My scenario might be unique, but I have a Clarity project for data analytics purposes, where overtime I will continue to add models that will never change, and will not need tasks to run on a schedule but manually when I know I have added a batch of new files.

    Navisworks Conversion task - add sufix output name

    Mario Laflamme · 0 · Posted

    I love the new Navisworks conversion task, however I would like to be able to include a sufix like a timestamp to the output file. I usually convert my .nwf file to nwd twice a day and I keep track of them with the date-time suffix. 

    A workaround right now is to run a .bat script as post action to copy-rename the file but having this integrated in the task would be much easier to manage.

    Short video support

    Clarity Help is great, but would be even better if short, 3-5 minute videos can be provided within Help pages to demonstrate common Clarity task workflows.

    Let task servers learn custom paper sizes from host server

    Andreas Dieckmann · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    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.
