Revit 2013 - Double Click a View Reference
I wrote about the enhancements to the existing View Reference feature in March when the software first was released.I didn't mention this other little goody, for people working inside Revit. If you double click on the view reference family Revit will open the view! If you export to DWF and export all the sheets to the same file you'll find they behave just like other annotation for views, CTRL + Click will open the other sheet/view....

This question returns regularly: do I have to acquire of AutoCAD Map 3D or AutoCAD Civil 3D? The best answer is often: why not both? You undoubtedly know that Autodesk launched for versions 2012 of the software continuations. These continuations gather the products for which our users have more the need. For example, with Infrastructure Design Continuation Premium 2013, one has the following software: - AutoCAD - AutoCAD® Map 3D - AutoCAD® Raster Design - Autodesk® Storm and Sanitary Analysis...

Point Cloud Fix in Revit 2012 Web Update 1
One of the biggest problems that people have had with the new Point Cloud capabilities of Revit 2012 is how it dealt with multiple point clouds inserted into your Revit project. If you had multiple scans that all were from the same origin, and you inserted them all origin-to-origin, then they would all line up, right? wrong...Some of the problem related to how Revit handled large coordinate values (as you may know, Revit doesn't like it when elements start showing up miles from the model origin)....

Recently bought a Dell XPS9100. Be sure you research the components before you buy from Dell...or you will regret it. I've had several problems so far all related to the video card and misinformation on the Dell website. Then in trying to sort it out I get the runaround between sales, technical support, returns, etc. That of course is broken up by the eventual disconnect at about the 45-50 min mark during the support call. At this point I have given up...sigh....
