Subject: IU Classic in Revit 2010 - Autodesk Come! The customer has the right

It seems, so you can clearly read in various forums, and in fact, the company itself is beginning to recognize tacitly, Autodesk has made a serious mistake to introduce policy style interface products "Ribbon." What can not be ignored and furthermore has an enormous importance in commercial terms, is that the criticisms from the expert users, ie those who not only use the tool in a serious but, for their excellent performance (and also by the strength of the price of licenses), depend on it and make what might be called a captive market.

could not be otherwise. If it completely changes the interface to the point that you lose all familiarity with the product, introducing inefficiency (for example, has taken us two hours to reconfigure a workstation to define a general template, shared parameters, export tables DWG, etc., when the same process only took five minutes with all previous versions of Revit), it follows that the customer protest the change. If today is already well known fact that the new interface makes the operation unstable (many falls during the day, "corrected with the latest Service Pack?) And also uses more resources, then the user feels downright angry with all the other truly unfortunate aspects of the new UI, such as your cloudy and unfocused (which strains the eyes), the air of information "useless" giving too much unsolicited help springs with viewports ordered not to jump all over (as if the product was designed for children or for a casual fan), and aesthetics much more complex and saturated with icons everywhere there is concern that by this way soon Revit dear today will become laughable AutoCAD has more feathers than the burrito of clowns. This is not nothing but a sign that Autodesk is losing due respect to your target audience. However

, which proves not damaged, the saying goes, but when you can depart on time (and effectively), wheat straw. It is undeniable that the series 2010, Autodesk has managed to unite all the different products, making the user look more or less the same aesthetic in each. Which unfortunately has not been achieved, or rather what has been achieved unintentionally, is that the user no longer feel at home with none. Except for completely new users, of course, neither are. The solution is to implement Revit withdrawal policy that leaves the option of returning to the classic UI, the usual, the simple. Consequently, not enough to accuse the coup and take back foot publishing as denied the existence of a mechanism "unsupported" to recover the classic UI and do a little attention to the users' hands. " What we are really hoping is that Autodesk is committed to declare that fully enable the IU Classic in the next Service Pack and overcome as soon as this unfortunate impasse . We

Autodesk!
