 Background Export to PDF Create Walls with Auto Join and Lock
• PDF Export can be run
in the background. While
the PDF export process
is running, you can
continue to work in your
model.

You can automatically join a newly created architectural wall with the adjacent wall, or join and
lock them together to speed up your modeling process when working with multiple walls

In the Modify | Place Wall tab, Placement panel, click (Auto Join) to only join the new wall
with the adjacent one, or (Auto Join & Lock) to join the walls and lock them to move
together. Any inserted elements in the joined walls will perforate both walls .
The Auto Join and Auto Join & Lock options are only available while using the architectural wall
tool to place walls. They will not be available for creating structural walls or face walls.
Newly created stacked walls and curtain walls cannot auto join or lock to existing walls using
this feature.
If you select Pick Faces in the draw gallery when creating an architectural wall, then the Auto
Join & Lock tool will be automatically disabled.
The existing adjacent walls in previous Revit versions will not automatically join when
upgrading to the new version.

Newly created slanted wall cannot align with the existing slanted or tapered wall, so the (Auto Join &
Lock) does not work in this case, but you can use (Auto Join).
• Previously, when exporting a PDF from Revit, your Revit session would need to complete
the PDF export process before you could continue working. Now, the PDF export process If you select a stacked wall or a curtain wall, the Auto Join and Auto Join & Lock tools are

background while you continue working on your model
Dynamo Updates 3.0.3
Dynamo 3.0.3 introduces package management in a single location, node search by category,
improved Revit sample graphs, and more.

Highlights include:
•Work better with linked models: Multiple nodes are available to work with linked instances, allowing you to understand the position and transforms applied to linked
elements, as well as work with their properties.
•Improved interactions with geometry: You can locate Revit geometry based on the detail level using the new Detail Level and Element.GetGeometry nodes, and access the
element ID associated with the geometry. Clicking on the green element ID button in Dynamo will now also zoom to fit on linked elements in Revit.
•Toposolid nodes: Utilize toposolid nodes to generate toposolid elements within Revit.
•Package Manager: The new Package Manager dialog provides a single location for locating and managing packages. In the Package Manager, you’ll find the following:
•Package search, with a new filtering option to view packages with or without dependencies on other packages
•Package details panel that opens in the Package Manager window
•Updated workflow to upload a new package or a new version of an existing package
•A list of all currently installed packages
•A list of the packages you’ve uploaded
•Access to your package settings
•Search for nodes by category: This improvement to the search enables you to specify node categories with a period. For example, searching for “list.r” returns nodes that
belong to the List category and begin with the letter R.
•More readable Watch node text: Multi-line text is more readable in Watch nodes. Scroll bars, when needed, are visible by default, and you can use the resize handle to
display more text.
•Updated Revit sample files: The Dynamo sample files under Help Samples Revit have been updated to include helpful descriptions that assist you in using the
graph. This update also eliminates overlapping and deprecated nodes.
•Gate node and Remember node in the Dynamo library: The standard Dynamo library now includes the Gate and Remember nodes. The Gate node allows you control the
execution in sections of your graph. An open Gate passes data through unchanged, while a closed Gate sends no data downstream. A Remember node stores the data
passing through it to the Dynamo file and returns the stored data if the input is null

This supports custom organization that can be referenced across Revit (such as in views,
schedules, families and filters).
The parameters Sheet Collection and Referencing Sheet Collection are available to
compatible view types in Revit, alongside the existing sheet and view parameters.
The Export\Print dialog includes each Sheet Collection as a dedicated display filter toggle, to
support precise selection of sheets in one or more collections.

 The New Revit Home: Tech Preview Shape Editing Snaps
Use the New Revit Home toggle button to try the new home page with more features. Enhancements to the snapping behavior when working in shape edit mode allow you to
