BlinkC Category Visibility
Digitally signed app
Descripción
Switch Categories, CAD imports and Autodesk® Revit® links visibility with a single click.
Change category transparency on the fly.
Forget the Visibility/Graphics window.
Switching category visibility is one of the most frequently used functionalities in everyday Revit work.
Are you tired of opening the Visibility/Graphics window to see, what´s behind a wall?
With BlinkC you have everything right there. Just click on the category in the list to show it. Or just type the name of the category. Or drag a slider to set it's transparency.
Everything works on the fly without interrupting your work.
Select a category in the list and it will be visible in the view instantly.
De-select categories and they will be hidden.
You don´t have to open a separate window.
A slider for each category lets you define the transparency with live visualization.
Filtering the list allows you to instantly isolate categories in the view (activate ‘auto sync’) or reduce the list of categories for easy accessibility.
Add categories of frequent use to a list of favourites for convenience.
Define which groups of categories shall be visible in the list (Model, Annotation, Analytical, Architectural, Structural, Electrical, Mechanical etc.).
Save up to five sets of visibilities to Short Cut buttons (‘A’,’B’,’C’ etc.) to switch between specific view visiblity definitions with one click.
Additionally to the standard categories, the visibility of CAD imports and Revit links can be switched the same way.
If you need to isolate the elements, that you are working on: it´s just one click.
If you want to look through a wall: just drag a slider.
Note: This app uses a custom installer (not the standard App Store installer).
Hello,
It's an amazing app, but for some reason, it doesn't load in Revit 2024, it works fine on versions 2023 and 2022. Do you have any thoughts about what could be causing this issue?
Hello Damian, this issue wasn´t reported to us before. It may be caused by a conflict with another plugin. Please try to deactivate your other plugins temporarily. If you can isolate the problem, please let us know about it: app-dev@bollinger-grohmann.de
Thanks for the effort, I was looking for a tool like this to stop using VV, especially in point cloud projects.
Looking forward for future updates.
I would suggest exploring the possibility to isloate the Revit link and their geometry.
Ability to save or to add to a View Template.
Also is it possible to supress the warning about CAD links.
Overall great tool.
Hi Tim, thanks for your proposal. Extending fuctionality to Revit links is in the pipeline (there is still some space left underneath the CAD links checkbox ;) ). Saving to View Templates seems interesting indeed. We will think about it. Possibility to suppress CAD links warning: we thought about it, but we didn´t expect to happen very often. We will add it in the next release. Thank you for your constructive review! Torsten Künzler
Great to see further development of the apps from B+G.
I love the visibility settings applies to the multi-view ports in Revit.
great work! thanks for sharing it!
It can be greater :)
I suggest additionally adding the ability to customise the colour of elements and the ability to create the same kind of customisation for linked files.
Hi. Thanks for your suggestion! We definitely will further extend the functionalities in future releases.
