    Custom Warning on Task Launch

    Brooke Peterson · 0 · Posted

    I think it would be a very nice feature to be able to pop-up a custom warning when the user launches a specific task. e.g. A Custom task that has built in feature to delete the file in destination location and replace it with an updated copy - Would be great to have a popup to use that says, "The Current File will be deleted and replaced with a new copy. Are you sure? " That kind of thing. To allow the user to back-out if they haven't considered everything required for this task etc.

    filter options

    Brooke Peterson · 0 · Posted

    Across the life cycle of our projects, the Filename (a.k.a. Target) often changes slightly depending on whether the file remains national or a state based file among other things. It would be really helpful if we had a way to filter files in my completed tasks list by "Contains" instead of "equals"? Or - can i check multiple in the filter list? 

    Also applies to when i want to know what tasks have been run on a particular file name but the path(project) might have been different. e.g.

    Multiple ClarityPDF Drivers

    Holden Fleck · 3 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    I've been noticing a bottleneck in the scalability of Clarity as a PDF automation tool. You can increase the number of Revit sessions that can run at one time on your task machines, and you can vary the PDF drivers to allow for each session to run PDFs simultaneously. However, varying the drivers only makes sense if you're ok with not having the PDFs coming from Clarity follow the same standard.

    Our use case requires all PDFs to be printed as individual sheets, which requires us to have the naming be consistent and clean. Only the Clarity PDF driver does

    Support more than 5 Revit versions back

    Evgeny Kurbatov · 3 · Last reply by Evgeny Kurbatov

    We have a project which still runs in Revit 2018. We have a special agreement with Autodesk to extend our licenses for Revit 2018. We would like to run Clarity task for that project, but it has a limited number of Revit versions to support.

    Can you consider some flexibility for supported Revit versions?

    Thank you.

    Evgeny.

    Provide the option to set files to open "Last Viewed" for worksets

    Max Lobo · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    Currently, when Clarity collaborates a model to the cloud, it sets the open option to "Specify" for worksets.  Would be good to have the ability to select "Last Viewed" or other options available in Revit.

    Web trigger

    We are storing documents on Google Drive. There is a web trigger that you can apply to ACC but if we could have a trigger that applies to google drive, that would be very beneficial.

    hard drive size

    Derek Becher · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    I think it would be a good idea to increase the recommended size on your, spec list. Small firms maybe able to get away with 500MB drive, but 1TB is going to be a better long term solution for most firms. We out grew the 500MB drive in less than a year and with rack mounted task server this was a little more complicated that swapping in a new C drive. Its mostly due to the ACC docs folder and the collaboration cache, not the files generated by clarity.

    tag tasks when they are part of a sequence

    Angelica · 0 · Posted

    When there are many tasks and sequences, and a task is being modified it is not obvious that it will affect a sequence or that it is part of one. Perhaps if tags were added to a task when it was added to a sequence.

    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

    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.
