    Default Search Revit User Help with Google

    I have composed two Google custom searches:

    Search Revit Architecture 2011 User Assistance

    Search Revit Architecture 2010 User's Guide

    They can also be added to iGoogle or one's own webpages. This method seems to work much better than the built-in search that Autodesk provides. You get to use all of Google's search syntax, too.

    Truevis:

    Thanks for the tip!! I've added this search tool to our Revit support page on our company intranet.

    Google search has now been integrated into the Online Help system. When utilizing the Search field you should now receive Google® powered results.

    This should make searching in the Revit Web help a much better experience.
