Structural Section Properties: Useful and avoids manually input data, which is always good. Reinforcement Numbering & Multi Rebar Annotation: More ways to tag is useful, but if doesn't look right in the first place it still only part of the solution. Rebar does have the flexibility required (for the most part), but you can't easily get it to display how you want to see it in documentation. EG: Area Reinforcement doesn't have the control we need, but has symbols. Many of my clients are now building their own Rebar families, with built in symbology just because this is so inflexible. Presentation in Rebar Sets: This would be useful if we could document and display reinforcement to our standards. But what about reinforcement in families! That would save me the most amount of work, as I could set once, rather than have to place everywhere after the fact. Reinforcement for parts: IMHO this should have been in the parts tool from day 1, so glad this has been completed. No longer will I have to create an extra instruction parameter. Tooltips for Family Parameters: As someone who creates a lot of families, some of which can get quite conmplicated, being able to include some instruction on what parameters do will be very useful. I don't think this is going to save many people a lot of time. Family Parameter Order Adjustment: This bugged me a lot when I first started creating families, but I've gotten used to the Reverse Alphabetic ordering. Trim/Extend Multiple Elements: This is a much needed feature, being able to window select the elements to be trimmed to the reference will be a large time saver for me. I don't want to have to worry about possible conversion based issues which plague IFC conversion between platforms. IE: No geometric conversions of the content to Revit elements, give me the raw geometry as defined in the IFC associated to the correct family category. Link IFC's: Okay this is a good BIM feature, but for me it needs to be a high fidelity link. I think Structural got the best improvements this year. Improve Worksharing to allow more users to work simultaneously and more robust!.
Library Management - detect what families have been updated and allow us to quickly reload.Making Assemblies do what they need to, IE: Be easily reusable, have the concepts of a fabricated element, sub-assemblies etc.
Integrated Graphical Door/Window & Curtain Wall Schedules. Upgrading the Text tools to match those of just about every other CAD/BIM Software. I'm not against a release that aims to fix up a lot of minor limitations and/or bugs, but pick some decent ones! And at least address 1 or 2 major ticket items. So for those that have seen the Revit 2015 new feature list, its pretty boring.
