[UPDATE] Roadmap for planned downtime for Collaboration for Revit
As updates to Collaboration for Revit and Autodesk A360 require small windows in downtime, we wanted to lay out the roadmap for upcoming downtime in service for Collaboration for Revit and Autodesk A360. The planned downtimes are as follows: 2015 Update Release 7 & C4R 2015.4 – March 6 A360 Upda...
my top 3:
1. Sorting schedules in project browser by schedule type/ disciplines etc...
2. Apply view templates for schedules for apparences, sorting etc...
3. Apply the same above to legends.
Revit Schedules: A Love Hate relationship
Posted on behalf of David Conant - Principal User Experience Designer: A product like Revit that is moving from adolescence to early maturity needs to revisit its roots periodically to make sure that it is not coasting on early glory. To illustrate, let me turn on the time machine. The scene: ...

That's an excellent idea for Revit newbies.
So lets talk about those "Essentials" or I prefer the word "fundamentals".
1. Navigation (View cube, Mouse Wheel, project browser, selection, nudge
2. Modeling (create basic elements, modify)
3. Query (Temporary dimension, Measure)
4. Datum (Levels and Grids)
For newbies that's enough to start then they will go to more advance skills.
I like the box ala Maya.
Thanks for listening
