    Group tasks

    Angelica · 0 · Posted

    It would be great if we could group tasks somehow. There are times when we have large projects and many disciplines involved with their own tasks, it makes it difficult to find tasks. Maybe add folders.

    Copy from Project button on Setup Tasks page

    Andreas Dieckmann · 0 · Posted

    This is just a small thing but I think it would improve the UX when setting up tasks. How about adding a Copy From Project button to the Setup Tasks page?

    Background: We keep a template project with pre-configured tasks and task sequences. Users are encouraged to copy those tasks to their projects instead of setting them up on their own. When busy on the Setup Tasks page, it always breaks the immersion in the workflow when people have to switch to the Project Home page in order to copy more tasks to their project.

    Load Families into models.

    Marcos Watts · 1 · Last reply by Marcos Watts

    It would be great if clarity could pick up families in a model or file location and load them into selected models and sync. It would need to know if you wanted to overwrite or overwrite with parameter values and keep a log of any errors it dismisses as it loads in the families.

    More Granular Control of Email Notifications

    Dave Baldacchino · 1 · Last reply by Brooke Peterson

    We automatically assign all our Design Technology Managers as Project Coordinators (global role) so they can see and support any project. Because of the hundreds of tasks that run everyday, we were forced to turn off the "Receives e-mails" setting for these accounts. Unfortunately that disables every single email, but we would like to have granular control of notifications in order to receive emails about:

    1. Failed tasks
    2. Dormant projects

    I filed a case with support (Case 00716746) as I was not sure whether dormant project notifications were part of this setting, and it turns out that it is. The suggested

    Auto-Add Project Creation user

    Jason Mounteer · 0 · Posted

    It'd be nice to have the person who is creating a project within Clarity auto-added as an Administrator to the project.  I'd envision this option being on the Project setup page, but I'd like this to have a toggle in Settings to make it default to "On" or "off"  like the task processing toggles.

    GTP Stratus - Auto Publish

    Dylan Blake · 3 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    GTP Stratus is a fabrication tool used to track the fabrication process through a project's life. Currently, you have to manually publish Revit models up to GTP Stratus to get the latest content. Could it be possible to automate this?

    default for launchable parameters (Task Target)

    Brooke Peterson · 0 · Posted

    Hi Guys,

    Our team use the Launchable parameter of Task target for quite a few tasks. We are seeing more and more end users accidentally running a task on 'all" instead of just the intended target due to the default option being to select all target files. Resulting in someone having to go in and cancel large number of tasks. (see attached image for ref:) Would it be possible to have an option for the default behaviour to select zero targets instead of all targets?

    Dynamo for families Task Improvement

    Brooke Peterson · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    I was wondering if there may be scope for an upgrade to the Dynamo For Families Task. We like to use this task to run a dynamo on our entire content library. Works great for a limited number of files. Just chugs through the list and gets it done. The problem is the inherent Revit limitation of not completely releasing in-use RAM until the revit session shuts down. Once we get upwards of 100-200 families being updated the revit session gradually loses available RAM, and ends up with the workstation sitting at 99% RAM in use, everything grinds to a

    Sort the files on the "Manage File Filters" by the actual directory order

    Jason Mounteer · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    It seems like - at least on B360 projects - that folder order isn't being used, but date uploaded or date of creation.  My teams have have several projects where random models will appear in the incorrect order when trying to filter, leading to confusion.  This is worse on projects where the actual Design Collab workflows may be used so multiple exact-name matches may appear in the index of files.

    Provide an action to set all tasks to use "Only On Change".

    Ken Etter · 3 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    Clarity sends emails about inactive projects that still have scheduled tasks running.  It would be great if Clarity had a "quick action" that could set all tasks for a project to run "Only On Change".  Or at least provide an individual action on the Setup Tasks page that would let us toggle "Only On Change" on or off without having to go in and edit each task.  It is currently much too time consuming to edit every single task to make this change.

    Show the task number for the log window

    Evgeny Kurbatov · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    I am trying to find the task which delays a Task Server. I want to find it by the task number, but sometimes it is not shown in the visible portion of the Clarity Task Log window. Is it possible add the task number to the window title? 

     

    Task name would be informative too.

    Thank you.

    Project Co-ordinator Access Task Setting

    Brooke Peterson · 0 · Posted

    I think a very useful feature for  The Task Options is to allow an additional level of control in the Access Required field of a Task setup: If this could be a dropdown that included Administrator/Project Coordinator/Standard User etc, that way we can better control which users can run each task.

    More options for Task Sequence target override

    Brooke Peterson · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    We would like for there to be a way to specify additional options in the task sequence target.

    e.g. Task 1 & 2 use the main task sequence file target - but task 3 uses it's individual set target.

    We run seqence tasks that take a single file, update the file and the duplicate the file based on criteria. I would then like to continue the task sequence - but change the target to the newly created files.

    alternatively an option to sequence a task sequence? Sequence 1 includes sequence 2 and 3 for example? This would also solve the

    Can the Project Re-scan frequency please be a configurable setting?

    Brooke Peterson · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    We would like the ability to set how often the projects scan for new files. Ideally this could even be configured on a 'Per project basis'.

    Usually the 30-60 min would not be a concern but we have a few projects with sequenced tasks that generate new files. Those files get picked up and modifed by a new task set to operate immeditely with sync to central (i.e. as soon as it arrives in project). This works, but we have to wait the 30 minutes or manually re-scan the project to do next step.

    Task List Name filter

    Judy Coleman-Graves · 0 · Posted

    Tasks List Filter: I noticed when I type a word in the filter name list (for example PDF) and pick enter. The filter list does not show on the dash board. I need to pick one of the tasks and this is the only task that shows. How can I get the filter list to shown all named tasks with the word PDF when I pick enter?  Could you add this to a future version? I am using Chrome as my browser.

    Constrain task to specific task server

    Andreas Dieckmann · 0 · Posted

    As a coordinator or platform admin, it would be great to be able to pick a task server when sending off a task. We regularly need to test new tasks on multiple projects and it doesn't always make sense to constrian the entire project to a specific task server.

    Let task servers report their available RAM and disk space

    On the Task Servers page, it would be helpful to have task servers report their available (free) RAM and disk space when they check in.
