Revit 2010 Hotfix

[aaronrumple]

Autodesk has posted at hotfix for an issue related to wall editing....

http://usa.autodesk.com/adsk/servlet/ps/dl/item?siteID=123112&id=13778933&linkID=9273944

Note that installation of this file will kill the ability to enable the 2009 UI in 2010. So if this doesn't fix your issues - then make sure you backup the old DLL. Otherwise you're stuck with the ribbons.

LOL, i wonder if this should be taken as a sign that when the next Web Update comes out (or 2011) that the Classic UI hack is really getting eliminated?

Im not using it anyway, but you cant help but wonder...

Thank goodness it's known that the 'hotfix' kills the 2009 UI

I'll certainly not be installing it. Especially since wall editing of any kind never caused me to crash. Only rendering and importing families as well as many unknown issues that never occurred while is was messing with walls.

edit: hadn't yet gotten to the other thread addressing this. Looks like it's being taken care of. Ignore my unhappiness at autodesk!

They haven't pulled the following yet:

I wonder if it was an oversight? There's little trust in Autodesk going around these days ;) Hopefully they'll fix it soon.

Adsk is going to patch this patch to resolve the issue.

Hey there,
No matter what the UI does or doesn't do...at least I am no longer in Dinosaur Age (hand drafting). With the additional clicks, I just feel more like George Jetson after a long day!

Even Micro$oft would have run some "automatic regression testing" before posting a Hot Fix - I thought that was what "debug mode" was for.

Can anyone advise me,

Does SP 2 which came out yesterday, superceed the above Hotfix in regard to a deployment, or do we still need to install the Hotfix?

Thanks

Improves stability and performance when modifying walls.But, it would be nice to get confirmation from Autodesk.

it would be nice to get confirmation from Autodesk.


I know this is hardly proof of anything from Autodesk, but I just crashed for the first time as a result of wall editing, and after submitting the error report, it told me that the Hotfix would address these issues (but the Hotfix instructions still tell me to install Update #1 first, with no mention of Update #2)! Go figure!

After finding this post, I have decided to leave the .dll file alone until I hear otherwise, or have more crashes from wall editing now that I have Update #2 installed.

The update releases have any previous Hotfixes rolled into them.

The update releases have any previous Hotfixes rolled into them.

That's what I suspected, but I appreciate your confirmation, Jeff. :beer:

You have have a short memory. Remember AutoCad 13? Every 2 weeks they came out with a fix. The program crashed more than bumper cars.
