Transaction assimilate involves the merge of commiting transaction so it is not required.

Hi Andy,
It is my first time installing the template. When I replace "Bushman" with my Windows user folder name "Steven Limo", it causes problem due to the space inbetween.

I can create a new user account with an account name without space, that solves the problem, but also means I will need to install all the software in that new user account. So without going through all that, can you guide me how to solve my "Steven Limo" space problem so it works within the vs codes.

Many Thanks
Steven

The tutorials are outdated, the new version seems to ask for a tab_key and a panel_key. These then point to a resource string with the actual names of such. At present it seems as if these have to be added to each ExternalCommand.

It would have been more conducive if the keys in each command could point to a resource of (e.g.) the ExternalApplication. That way it would be possible to have only one place for these names, and then each command in the addin referencing that. However, doing it this way at present brings up an error in Revit:

Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: tabName

Would it be possible for the names to be retrieved from the project-wide resources instead of those specific to each command? Perhaps this issue should rather be in the RevitDevTools repository, though I'm unsure where to place it.

Hi,

Did anyone install this template? I don't know why when I run RevitAddInTemplateSet_Configurator.exe (application), a black windows appears and then closes. very fast. Nothing else happens. No files are generated in Visutal Studio Templates folder :( I have watched your tutorial video, the CustomParameters.txt there is much different from the one on Github. Therefore, I have tried to change it but nothing have worked so far.

Hi,
If I start Revit from start menu or from command->run (C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Revit 2017\Revit.exe),
Revit works fine.
but if i start it by debug (F5) the splash screen showd OK but than revit stopped with:

The program '[11760] Revit.exe: Program Trace' has exited with code 0 (0x0).
The program '[11760] Revit.exe' has exited with code 0 (0x0).

In Journal file this is what I get:

I hope you can help me

Hi Andrey, when I create a new "Revit 2017 External DBApplication" project，VS show tow dialog like this:

It means the file named "*.re.chm" is missing. Then, the project created can not work.

thank you...

If the file name of new command contains the spaces then the file with _Work.cs suffix will have wrong class name in generated code. I mean the new command which was created on the base Revit 2017 External Command Item Template. It happens because I use such code string:

sealed partial class $fileinputname$ {

I can't find more suitable variable instead of $fileinputname$.

So, don't use the spaces for new commands file names. :(((
