Downloading a new build (20050227_0414)

[SCShell]

Hey there,

Here is a 'newbie' question for you. I realize that you can download a new version without removing the old. (7.0 and 6.1) However, I was told once that to download a new build of the same release version, one must uninstall the old program first. Is this true?

Secondly, I was told a long time ago to always save my families, templates etc. outside of Revit. So I do. (Does this affect how one downloads a newer build.) And, will this affect my imported DWG and rastor images (JPG and BMP) which are currently in my active 7.0 projects?

I want to rotate a crop region and I noticed the post about the new build. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance
Steve

Yes, the old version of 7 will need to be uninstalled but the installation program will do it for you.

Imported drawings and images should not be affected because they are part of the drawing file.
