Not being able to install #Revit 2024 is not the Xmas gift I was hoping for. Lots of files installed but no Revit.exe
Any suggestions @AutodeskRevit @autodeskhelp?

So grateful to have been part of this amazing team! Thank you @jimbalding for your kind words - we were lucky to have you as a pioneering Revit whisperer for all these years.

Some of the original #revit technology (pre-@autodesk) crew met for lunch in Harvard Square, Cambridge MA this past Monday. It's been almost 24 years since I joined Revit Technology to change the world, and I think we did it!

@kslifter1 @seanmpage @tkunsman You can see an implementation of IUpdater and the setup of the needed triggers at
bitbucket.org/BoostYourBIM/b…
There is a lesson on Updaters in my Udemy course udemy.com/course/revitap…
English

@seanmpage @tkunsman @BoostYourBIM I'm finally getting around to looking into this. How do you setup a Dynamic Updater? I've never heard of that. I've just used Dynamo/Python and created a toolbar via Pyrevit. I tried Googling it, but there didn't seem to be any videos that I could find.

Can you tie the #Revit Revision Schedule to an Issue List Schedule?

Jay was a wonderful person who brought so much levity and passion to the Revit world
AUGI@AUGI
In the current #AUGIWORLD David Harrington reports on the recent passing of our friend and former #AUGIWORLD author Jay Zallan, expressing a glimpse of who Jay was and how he consistently inspired us in all fields. smpl.is/83sst It's right up front on page 6. #AUGI

@seanmpage @tkunsman A few other things:
#3 - register the updater for Deleted elements
(if you delete a revision cloud, we don't want the 'dot' to remain)
#4 - start by clearing all parameter values for all revisions and all sheets, then loop through all revision clouds
English

@tkunsman @BoostYourBIM It is using a Dynamic updater, and presumable like this:
1. Register the Updater on Startup
2. Pick the Category & Change Type
3. Set up the Updater for Added / Modified Elements
4. Set the Parameter on the Sheet for the Revision
