    PDF Page Setup - Offset from corner not center

    Dustin Gore · 0 · Posted

    Minor typo... The Page Setup for In Session in Clarity says "Offset from Center."  I believe this should be "Offset from corner as it is in Revit.  Center is a different radio button.

    Unified Sync task from ProjectWise to BIM360 is copying outdated versions of files

    Eduardo Mancilla · 0 · Posted

    I have a task running to sync all the folders and files from ProjectWise to BIM360, and I noticed that files where the file name was modified are being copied over as the previous version. By that I mean the following: Original_File1.dwg               Version " "

    *name change*

    Newname_File1.dwg           Version  "A"

    *update*

    Newname_File1.dwg           Version  "B"

    Then the sync task runs, it creates 2 files, the Version " " with the old name, and the Version "B" with the updated data. It shouldn't copy the first original file

    ForgeApiException: Uncaught error while testing if folder...

    Kenny Hunter · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    Project is unable to "Migrate Models" to a new hub. Was working at one point and now cant find the "folder" or "Project" in the clarity project.

    However, If I create a new project from scratch, it CAN see the clients hub and its files. However, when attempting the "Migrate" model task again, it comes up with "no folder" error.

    Clarity Task Utility

    Steve Cardinal · 0 · Posted

    The Clarity Task Utility does not accurately retrieve/report on Task Sequence tasks. Seems it will show subtasks that are claimed but not in progress. It also doesn't include the Task sequence task itself. Can this be updated/fixed?

    Task Timeline, Show "Only On Change" not working

    Jean-François L. · 0 · Posted

    Hello, the check box "Show "Only On Change" tasks" in the task timeline overview, doesn't work. When unchecked, I still see "Only on change" tasks in the overview list. I can't refresh the page because it will re-check the option by default, so I am stuck in a loop. If I uncheck and recheck, it will compress the entire list into one single line of incomprehensible text.

    Thanks,

    Timeline inaccurate when multiple timezones are involved

    Max M · 0 · Posted

    The timeline (both the detailed and the regular timelines) in Clarity show incorrect times when the servers are in a different timezone from the user looking at the timeline.

    For example, this photo was taken at 3:49pm PST, from a computer in the PST timezone. 

    As you can see, it currently shows the local time (red line) as 3:49pm, but it also shows several past events as happening several hours in the future. It seems it's displaying the timestamps from the local timezone of the server, without adjusting to the timezone of the web client.

    Custom TaskParameter with name "Target" returns multiple values

    Edward · 3 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    When creating a task parameter with the name "Target" like so:

    The resulting TaskParameter value = *,a

    If I rename the task parameter to any other name it returns the correct (singular) value "a"

    It would appear that there might be a hidden property called "Target" that somehow is returning a value of "*" perhaps? When reporting all task parameters (when using any other name for this) I do not see TaskParameter Target = *

    Unable to use Bentley IMS login

    Edward · 2 · Last reply by Edward

    In the help docs it specifies the following "On the Clarity Task Server, we have begun to support Bentley IMS Accounts"; however when updating the task server configuration to activate the "Use ProjectWise IMS Login" option, it fails to login with IMS and attempts a user/password login.

    Perhaps this is due to the web server settings that do not appear to have a method to disassociate a logical account from the web server project authorization settings, there are only options for user/password credentials. Any new project created will use the default setting and attempting to add a credential without a

    Clarity version 2024 not allowing ProjectWise username prefaced with an underscore?

    Edward · 1 · Last reply by Edward

    Our company standards dictate that all our ProjectWise service accounts are prefaced with "_" and we have never had an issue with 2023 version of Clarity... However after upgrading to 2024 it appears that this introduces errors within the latest version 2024?

    Personally I've never had any issue using the ProjectWise API with these usernames before; however the Clarity software seems to cause significant errors with Connection Client software licensing in this latest version... Can we please get this bug patched instead of just writing a warning and pretending that the problem is within the ProjectWise API?

    Thanks, Ed

    Feature request for email notification - Please include folder path in the Move/Copy Post action

    Kervin Calero · 0 · Posted

    I'd like to request a feature added to the email notification. Please include a clickable file explorer link to the folder path specified in the Move/Copy Post action. This path link will take you to the results faster instead of having to manually look for it. The email notification already has a lot of info but missing this. Thanks

    "It looks like the requested service is currently unavailable. Please try again." Dialog

    Dan Warren · 2 · Last reply by Dave Baldacchino

    I just happened to be looking at a task server when this error window popped up. I watched the machine for a little while to see if it would suppress this dialog. It didn't, so, I clicked OK and then it resumed the task.

    Is Clarity able to suppress this dialog? It didn't appear the task would move forward had I not intervened. I also don't think this dialog is much more than a nuisance.

    Launchable parameters selection dialog is not provided when launching a task from within the task setup screen

    Brooke Peterson · 0 · Posted

    We have tasks setup with the target set to  *  so they allow access to all files in the project.

    The launchable parameter of Target is enabled so the user can select which file to run at launch time.

    The 2 run buttons as per attached image behave differently. The top one gives user option to set the launchable target parameter, while the lower one in setup screen, just launches the task on all files.

    This then launches in our case 100(sometimes thousands) of tasks which i need to go and cancel. If other tasks are running at the same

    PDF "garbled" Text Issue

    Taylor DeVaney · 2 · Last reply by Heather

    Some of our PDF files generated from PDF Tasks have text issues to where the text displays as "garbled" text - showing random characters of symbols, letters, and numbers. We use the Arial Font, which all of our Task Servers have installed.

    My workaround is to the issue is to first delete the existing PDF files in the Project's main Artifact folder first so that there is no PDF files that Clarity has to attempt to overwrite, which does seem to help issue, but we have overnight/scheduled PDF Tasks that we run as Check Sets that are  constantly having to

    Clarity cannot access models on BIM360

    Philip Chase · 2 · Last reply by Philip Chase

    We are seeing some major issues where Clarity is telling us it cannot access the models in a project. Tasks will run successfully one day and then fail the next. Or a particular task will run on one model and not another in the same project.

    These are the steps we've found that will fix the problem sometimes:

    1. remove file filters at the project level
    2. remove Clarity from BIM360 project and re-add with Admin permissions
    3. request rescan after adding Clarity as Admin

    IF we have a successful task run after this, we can sometimes add the file filters back into the

    Issue exporting Clarity Rand database using SQL Server

    James Nolan · 1 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    While exporting the Clarity rand database using SQL server connection, we ran into the following issues and would appreciate your support with resolving.

    1. Clarity index data base is empty
    2. The Modeltime query table is only available for some users, we need that to be available for all the users working on the models. 
    3. There are some query tables that are empty. E.g. (Diagnostic chart, User group, User group project, User group Revit user)
    4. Only some users are visible in user query tables. 
    5. Model Size is negative and unreal number is query tables.
    6. We need to produce a 'matrics over time'

    File has been deleted

    Jordan Lane · 0 · Posted

    During a very importnat deadline last week. One of our files was shwon as Deleted in the Activity Stream on Clarity, it is hosted on BIM 360, we have had no problems with this file until now. I could not find the file anywhere to include in tasks. Why did this happen and how do I prevent it from happening again?

    TaskCommandTester null reference error

    John Dutz · 3 · Last reply by Matt Mason

    Minor issue with an easy workaround, but TaskCommandTester.Command.Execute should check if commandData.Application.ActiveUIDocument is null and provide a more meaningful error message rather than "a NullReferenceException occurred".
