• Changes and Improvements:

V2022.1 (for Revit 2022 till 2017)

This is our biggest update yet! We needed to change the internal structure of our format, so new Tables xlsx files can’t be opened in older Tables version prior to Tables 2022.1. Therefore, please make sure your entire team is updated to the latest version. 

• New Features:
  • • Smart Reports
      You can now document your model in a new way: one element on one sheet based on a template worksheet. You can use this function for example to automatically create “Roombooks” (model based room programs) but it also can be used for complex calculations for one element per sheet

      With this new feature you can automatically create non placed MEP spaces – just like rooms, with all the preset data you want to add
    • Grouped Fields
      Summary fields calculating one value for one cell, good for Smart Reports, great for creating simple dashboards
    • New Feature Parameter: Element Image on Floor Plan (for Smart Reports only)
      The “Element Image on Floor Plan” – Feature Parameter will generate an Image of the element based on a floor plan (requires settings in the global settings dialog)

      The “Key Plan Image” – Feature Parameter will generate an Overview-Image of your entire floor with the specific element highlighted (requires settings in the global settings dialog)

      You can now manage and analyse your Revit warnings really easily. You can even add a rating to them to get a clearer overview of them (requires settings in the global settings dialog)

      For documenting and checking room programs
    • New Feature Parameter “VersionGuid” (For Revit 2021+)
