Issues Resolved

General

  • Addressed potential security vulnerabilities.

API

  • Improved model upgrade reliability to prevent some Revit 2024 models from incorrectly reporting file corruption when opened in newer versions of Revit.

Advance Steel Extension

  • Fixed an issue in which the Force/Moment values from analysis results did not populate the Code Checking module in Steel Connections.

Copy-Cut-Paste

  • Fixed a performance issue where copying many in-place elements could take hours.

Electrical Circuits

  • Improved performance when editing circuits on models with large electrical systems. Previously, clicking Edit Circuit could take up to a minute because the distance to each candidate panel was recalculated repeatedly while sorting the panel list.

Export PDF

  • Fixed an issue where Revit became unresponsive when exporting to PDF with the Export in Background option enabled.

File Open/Save Internals

  • Addressed potential security vulnerabilities when opening Revit files.
  • Improved stability on document open when a third-party addon creates a dockable panel but fails to initialize it properly.

FormIt Converter

  • Restored the Edit in FormIt button for FormIt links.

IFC

  • Fixed an issue that prevented IFC exports to network folders.
  • Improved Revit stability when opening/importing a malformed IFC file containing cyclic placement relationships.
  • Fixed color export in IFC 4 Reference View.

Import/Export Data Exchange

  • Fixed an issue so that parameters from Data Exchanges created outside of the US are accessible.
  • Fixed an issue where loading Data Exchanges with certain types of parameters would fail.
  • Fixed an issue where custom properties from the Parameters Service were not loaded in Revit for non-US region hubs. Regional server routing now works correctly, ensuring all custom properties appear as expected.
  • Fixed an issue where room geometry failed to load when opening a Revit 2026 exchange containing rooms. Room geometry now loads correctly across versions.

Import/Export/Link STL/OBJ/STEP

  • Fixed an issue that prevented STEP files on Desktop Connector from being linked into Revit.
  • Improved stability when importing OBJ/STL files with small geometric details.

MEP Fabrication

  • Fixed an issue where Route and Fill checked out extra elements after the command finished.
  • Fixed an issue introduced in Revit 2026 where pattern 866 straight lengths could be calculated incorrectly when using connector adjustments in specific configurations.

Pipe

  • Improved stability when modifying the system after starting the Pipe command.

Print

  • Fixed an issue in views using MEP Hidden lines where the outer line of the duct/pipe/wire was missing in vector print/export when it was a parallel edge to a second duct/pipe/wire at another height inside the set gap distance.

Project Browser

  • Fixed an issue that caused the Project Browser to become unresponsive when dragging views onto sheets.

Revit Cloud Worksharing

  • Fixed a permission issue that could occur when opening a Revit Cloud Model in Forma Data Management.
  • Improved resiliency of the Sync with Central and Model Open dialogs.
  • Fixed an issue where Synchronize with Central failed for a cloud model that had been restored to a previous version.

Roombook

  • Improved stability when calculating and adding areas within Areabook.

Selection

  • Fixed an issue where the FilteredElementCollector API could cause Revit to close unexpectedly when collecting elements from a linked model that was not visible in the specified view.

Startup/Shutdown

  • Improved stability on Revit startup.

System Zones

  • Fixed an issue that caused a system-zone to be deleted if an assigned space is deleted.
