Duplicate Viewport on Sheet – Macro

Greetings, folks! Here is a quick solution to an inconvenience I was having when setting up some Window Legend sheets today. In this particular case I’ve decided to use the Phased Out Legends approach discussed many years ago in this blog post by Martijn de Riet. This is from 2012 but it’s still a valid […]

BIM Dictionary – Part 1

Being a wizard in Revit and Dynamo and composing Macros and Plugins like BIMozart on steroids is all well and good, but one has got to get paid for that eventually. And to be paid “eventually” one needs to have agreed on that payment beforehand. And let’s be honest, as inspiring and amazing our leaders […]

Something is Cooking…

Here in Archilizer we are proud geeks! We love a bit of scripting, and a handsome spreadsheet – data speaks to us. Just give us a crisp set of algorithms on a Monday morning and we will break them and fix them by noon. But we also remember our humble beginnings in design. We know […]

Women in BIM

We ain’t many. I am not planning to shower you in statistics – if you want them, there are resources avalable a google search away, but if you think that the construction and technology industries are gender diverse, this blog may not be your cup of tea. Feeling alone on a table with an average […]

Dynamo Day London

At the start of last week, I was delighted to participate in the very first UK Dynamo User Group Dynamo Day. I was invited to speak about my experience with Dynamo and also had the opportunity to take part in a Dynamo workshop. This was the first event of this kind to be organised in […]

Forge Rocks!

As written on the face of the promotional T-Shirts we’ve got (together with a ‘TRUST ME, I’M A H4C1<3®’ sign on the back), Forge Rocks indeed! I was able to assert that (see what I did there) after spending a week in one of the Forge Accelerator events, this one held in Barcelona between 11-15 […]

Dynamo

What is Dynamo? Dynamo keeps coming up here and there and if you are not sure what it is or why you should be excited about it – this is for you! Here in Archilizer we get very excited about automation but also teaching and empowering the users. Dynamo is the best tool for that. […]

The Gradient of BIM expertise in the Industry

It is a beautiful time when you dive in a project where all the consultants involved are fully BIM enabled and thirsty to make those schedules work beautifully not only for the QS, but also for your strategy drawing showing several models owned by entirely different parties! If you spend long enough in an environment […]

BIM4Legal Launch

Archilizer visited an exciting event in the end of April – the launch of a new group that unites legal professionals and technical BIM experts – BIM4Legal. The group was born from an interesting peace of research – The Winfield Rock Report, commissioned by the BIM Alliance. We loved the spirit of the event. The […]

Archilizer – a New Chapter

Two years since its incorporation, Archilizer has now grown and has an established client base – ready to double its size. First, we put out heads together with some professional helpers to establish a new logo for Archilizer. We wanted our logo to be practical and minimalist and to relate to our clients in a […]

Text to Capitals

This is a short macro that I wrote today for a task that has always been bothering me. I spend equal amounts of time changing the first several text notes by hand, looking for an existing solution in the Revit Store as well as everywhere else (Google) and finally writing the small script up. It […]
