    Ability to read materials info from the exported FBX. This is an ability that was in 2010, but not in 2011. AutoDesk touts FBX as "platform-independent" and universal, but it has a Protein2 materials converter that it has not made public. The upshot is that 3rd parties cannot properly read the FBX files, be they separate software pieces or plugins. And quite frankly, Revit's renderer doesn't cut it. Especially in the materials department.

    This isn't right. Either AutoDesk should rescind some of their claims, or they should allow the FBX's to be used as advertized. They've got developers and end users going crazy and wasting time trying to solve an unsolveable problem, apparently knowingly generated by AutoDesk.

    An easy way, for non-techies, to create macros. Like the way Excel lets you "Start Macro" (then you walk thru the keystrokes), the "Finish Macro." Make life easier for the 99% of us who don't do code.

    More examples in VB.Net. If you are going to support it, then support it.
