Comments on: A New Project…and a Revit 2010 Did You Know?! http://caduzer.com/2009/08/14/a-new-project-and-a-revit-2010-did-you-know/ Tue, 09 Mar 2010 15:36:10 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Gregory Arkin http://caduzer.com/2009/08/14/a-new-project-and-a-revit-2010-did-you-know/comment-page-1/#comment-164 Gregory Arkin Sat, 15 Aug 2009 04:28:54 +0000 http://caduzer.com/?p=915#comment-164 Congrats on the new project. Revit 2010-64 is an excellent vintage. On th3 3d Connexion issue, I've spoken to the Revit Project Manager and 3D Connexion directly. Below are my two blog posts and actions I've tried. I found out at AU last year that over 300 emails were sent to Autodesk and 3D Connexion demanding action. Bottom line from what I understand, the ball is in Autodesk's court to do what's needed for the mouse driver. I was hoping that 2010 would have solved the issue, but still no dice. Last year, the answer was that due to budgeting and resources, the mouse driver wasn't a priority. Did you know, Revit is the only major Autodesk product that's not supported. Even AutoCAD Architecture can use the Space Mouse. I spoke to someone very high up on the development chain for Revit two weeks ago and still nothing's being done to resolve the issue. I think it's time for SOM to make noise about it. Scott, Autodesk will listen to you. They'd never want bad PR from such a large architectural firm. I'll give you the names of exactly who you need to talk to to make it happen. You're our only hope at this point. ~Gregory http://bimboom.blogspot.com/2008/09/update-on-3dconnexion-space-navigator.html http://bimboom.blogspot.com/2008/06/i-dont-know-whos-to-blame-for-this-but.html Congrats on the new project.
