This is great for everyone, as we can periodically refresh the material offerings with no inconvenience to you.
This change actually went live about a week ago, as these materials are hosted on a service that can be modified without requiring an app update. We've added about 70 new materials, and refreshed the maps on nearly 200 others, in the Material Samples directory on Windows, and in the Pro-only Material Library on Web and iPad. In addition to the standard FormIt AXM/AXMF file types:įormIt for Windows has the biggest selection of importable files, and the Content Library now supports all of them: DWG, FBX, OBJ, SAT, SKP, and STL.įormIt for Web supports STL and OBJ imports, and now the Content Library does, too. The impacts from this change depend on the platform. We've opened up the Content Library to support non-FormIt file types, so you can drag and drop 3D content like furniture, entourage, and supporting models from any file type that's supported already via the Import menu. In FormIt proper, we've made several enhancements and fixes we think you'll appreciate: Content Library: All Importable File Types The FormIt Add-In will continue to grow, and we have big plans in motion for the larger FormIt + Revit connection, too!

Each face has a rotation and/or scale override, which is lost in Revit 2021.0 and older, but maintained in Revit 2021.1 and newer:Įxcited? You'll need to upgrade to Revit 2021.1, then do the following depending on your setup: Here's a simple FormIt model with several materials applied to faces. Materials that were scaled or rotated on a face in FormIt, for example through the Adjust Material Placement tool or from imported geometry, will now remain at the correct orientation when converted to Revit. In Revit 2021.0, the smoothed edges become unexpectedly visible, but Revit 2021.1 keeps them hidden: Here's a design in FormIt ( powered by Dynamo!) featuring dozens of curved surfaces generated using sweeps and lofts. Smoothed (hidden) edges between FormIt faces will now remain hidden when converted to Revit. Let's start with the FormIt Add-In! Available only for Revit 2021.1 and newer, this update addresses two of our biggest customer requests, and will help you visualize your FormIt data more accurately and effectively in Revit: Edge Visibility Consistency We're excited to announce FormIt 2021.2, as well as a major update to the FormIt Add-In for Revit.
