![]() These can be used to represent basic landscaping and roads. There have been several improvements with the introduction of toposolids such as the ability to cut the toposolids and also incorporate thickened layers to create raised solid regions. In the image below you can see the new toposolid tool shown on the Massing & Site tab. Toposurfaces have now been discontinued in this release and the new toposolid tool is now the preferred method to create topography. This is a great way of integrating models from many other BIM and manufacturing authoring tools. In the example below you can see that I have linked a bridge pier across from Autodesk Docs that was authored in Autodesk Inventor. ![]() The models can be used for in-context modelling and have rudimentary snapping via the Revit point snap function. This means that we can now link models from other formats such as IFC, Civil 3D, Inventor and Advance Steel. Of course, you can also use this in plans, sections and elevation views for presentations.Ĭoordination models can now be directly linked from Autodesk Docs to Revit. I quite like this new visual style it works well and is significantly faster than realistic. This new visual style allows users to see textures without having to use the realistic mode which uses lighting and other settings. The visual styles now have another option simply named ‘Textures’. I can then just drag theses into the project to use them. In the example below, I have searched for ‘305’ which shows various categories and families that include the search term. We have also gained a search function in the Project Browser which is incredibly useful, not just for searching views but also the loaded content. I personally will probably stick with the standard interface, but I can see the appeal if you spend many hours in Revit and want to ‘tone down’ the stark white screen! I have also noticed that some of the browsers and dialogs are still using a white background, so, if you are using the system browser the dark theme will look a little odd. Like many interface updates, these are quite subjective some will love the dark theme and others will want to stick with the standard interface. This release of Revit gains some significant interface changes in the form of a new ‘dark’ mode, repainted icons and a new framework for the Project Browser and Properties Palette.
