1. Multiple line weights to single wall types! I'm not sure about the USA but everywhere else in the world we use different line weights to differentiate materials: Timber - 0.35, concrete 0.5-0.7, lightweight cladding - 0.15 and so on... the idea that we are made to scour the plans with the LW tool overwriting line weights is crazy… please look at how Archicad approaches this.

Revit is not Archicad (thank God), you can control and create all your line weights.

Thanks for the reply mate... but again, not the level of control needed.What you've pointed out is a universal cut line overide, not an individual control. See the attached image... this is the most standard, commonly drawn wall in the world and I needed to use the Linework tool to create it correctly. I'm just saying that line weights and fill weights should allow further refinement through the Edit Assembly dialog box.Theres a preview right there... why cant we overwrite them there? I know I shouldnt mention the 'A' word here but seriously, this is exactly what can be done in Archicad.

Haha i knew someone was gonna ask me that... simply, I prefer the Revit interface. Revit does have advantages over archicad, and vise versa... I'm not saying i like archicad, it is an amazingly indepth, complex program, but I just dont like using it. I just suggest archicad because the sollutions to the problems i've pointed out (see my other wishlist items), and more, are there, resolved. I'm just saying if revit did the things archicad could, on top of all the things revit can do but archi cant... well nothing could stand in Autodesk's way.

yeah, well... maybe that graphic things that only care to architects maybe is a good improve to Revit (like adding depth with gray lines in elevations and sections) ... but there is too much things you just cant do with archicad. You cant do a fully customizable stair, rail, or "smart elements" (you can do it... but with a plugin) You cant place real topographic information in archicad (you can with terra sumthing... another plugin) You can import geometry from sketchup... but when you try to make it walls, floors and roofs, its all choppy. I give up on archicad for those main reasons...
