Revit Subscription Advantage Packs coming soon

UPDATE 2009-10-22: The Advantage Packs are available now via your Autodesk Subscription login

I just finished a web meeting previewing some upcoming Revit Advantage Packs for Revit Architecture, MEP and Structure Subscription Customers. There are a bunch of refinements and some significant new features;

Refinements:

  • Keyboard Shortcut Management UI – Edit, export, import
  • View Cube Functions Enhanced
  • Conditional Format In Schedules (from MEP)
  • DWG Import/Export Refinement
  • Text Formatting Shortcuts - CTRL+B, CTRL+I, CTRL+U
  • Text Find & Replace

  • API Improvements

Some of the new functionality highlights include;
