This is a Special Edition of the Weekly Roundup, focused solely on What’s New with Revit 2017 …….I would say all Flavors, but that’s one of the new things it’s just “Revit” in 2017, no more Architecture, Structure or MEP.
UPDATE #3 at the bottom – Saturday May 14th, 2016.
UPDATE #2 – Saturday May 7th, 2016.
UPDATE #1 – Saturday April 30th, 2016.
Lets get the party started with what Autodesk has to say about what’s new with Revit 2017.
Of course Autodesk doesn’t just write what’s new anymore, they also have a large collection of clips on their Autodesk Building Solutions YouTube channel too.
What’s New in Revit 2017 (they have 26 video’s in this playlist) I have embedded a few to wet your appetite.
I thought a good place to start the blogger posts with the RevitCat as he talking about the install process……..which seems like a good enough starting point.
