One word... crosshairs... what a novel idea. The whole arrow thing always irritated me. I'm liking the new setup, however, my keyboard shortcut for 'mirror' doesn't work anymore and additionally, I'm not a fan of how the mirror command is now two separate commands depending on how you want to select the axis.

Very frustraded with RAC2010 the new UI it acutally slows me down. I was hoping to see some real improvements, hence, the text could have been more user friendly like mtext in autoCAD. Design options completly changed I don't like it at all and why autodesk figured out a way to use the text and dimensions in each option set separate from the main model. 2010 is slower than 2009. I feel cheated, all they changed is cosmetic stuff not the functionality of the software.

Got to agree with Jaff in terms of slowing things down. Just sumple things like the 'align' tool. Why do I now have to enter a seperate menu to do it when it was just there staring you in the face before along with all of the other tools that you use constantly.

I just revceived notice from the IT guys at my office that Revit 2010 was in their hands, and I was welcome to install it if I iwshed (I am the only one in the office that uses it). From what I read it seems split, that some love it and some hate it. Any "non-biased" suggestions out there?

... I'm not a fan of how the mirror command is now two separate commands depending on how you want to select the axis." Me too, I usually draw the mirror axis, so now select the item to be mirrored, "find" the mirror command, (i will get better at that) select it, go to draw the line, oh wrong mirror command, go back try again, make sure you get the small pull down arrow, yep got it, now i'm back to normal... So next time I use it, I expect it will remember that's the one I used, oh no it doesn't. OK I use that method heaps so I will make a keyboard shortcut, ah no I won't, It doesn't appear to exist in the keyoard shortcut file, OK I will drag it up to the quick access toolbar, no I won't, I can only do it with the mirror pick axis button. Grrr. Any ideas??? VERY INCONSISTENT-I don't hate the new interface, I guess it's progress, it doesn't make things any quicker, but it's a bit more intuitive. -I would like to REDUCE the number of clicks to any one command. - Especially finding content...(It's definitely better than 09) Any chance of ADT style "TOOLPALLETES" ?

For the Revit 2010, I cannot really say that is a disappointment, but certainly it is not impressive. The new UI is a hard one to be justified, it might affect the normal productivities for start, but if you used to use shortcut keys like me, I found that the impact is very minor. The new Massing modeling approach and the new curtain pattern layout certainly are “a piece of work”, I still trying to gain more control over those new tools. Overall, I feel a bit disappointed Autodesk didn’t focus on the root of Revit, improving the performance of documentation.

We first got into revit in 2009, with hired tutorial help, etc. it was the worst crap I ever messed with !!.. (we're strictly MEP). We abandonded the idea of using it, just because we didn't want to invest a lot of man-hours to make it work for us. (isn't that what a software company is suppose to do anyway ?).. We heard of the newly improved 2010. Very reluctant to try it, but right out of the box, it worked miracles compared to 2009 out of the box. The ribbons are easy for me to use, just because i've been used to Autocad 2009's ribbons. There are still a few bugs, and things i'd wish it would do, and can't see why it won't... but I've been messing with it since it first came out, and so far, i'm really impressed.

Tell me AlphaDDC07, where the Orient with other Views options is found in the Ribbon interface? Like you I am hoping "to enjoy the simpler, easier to use and expecting huge productivity gains", meantime it is cramping my style....and hindering my progress.... My opinion is they should have not released improvement like this until it becomes even remotely comparable to what you can do to customize its sister Autocad interface. Like Autocad, the power user's best route to productivity is these keyboard shortcuts.. the lest they can do is provide a migration program to port the old shortcuts to the new ones.....not requiring us to build it from the start..... Cheers.

Does anyone know why the RME content library is not there yet? MEP is the only one missing.

Nevermind, got an answer: Yes, Revit MEP library content has been fully migrated to Seek. Thanks,JunJun ShimSenior Product ManagerAutodesk Content Network Now if only Manufacturers hired all these unemployed 3d designers, we could actually have some decent MEP content

Yeah i have to say - i wanted to give the interface a change and not reject it outright.... but all i can say after working with it for a few weeks is that it really sucks. i have always praised revit for not following autocad's path of simply changing the user interface and releasing a new version. but it seems that autodesk's business model is having an impact on revit as well. too bad.

The new interface is great once you break it in....and the biggest plus I found is that the ribbon is deconstructable. You can pull off your most common used tools and have them always available which makes the transition a lot easier.
