Solar Radiation Technology Preview for Revit 2011

As I mentioned when the Revit 2011 products were recently launched, one of the most exciting pieces of new functionality from a building performance analysis perspective is the introduction of the Analysis Visualisation Framework, allowing results to be displayed in the Revit graphics window.

You can now see this in action with the release of the Solar Radiation Technology Preview available from the Autodesk Labs Site:

Revit 2011 Solar Radiation Technology Preview

Definitely worth grabbing. Please remember to feed back your thoughts to the Labs Team.

Now you will be able to see the use for the Analysis Display Styles Dialog that may have intrigued you:

Hi Peter,

I have not seen this error, I presume a location has been set in the project? Please email me a screenshot of the error and I'll investigate further.

Cheers,

Simon

Hi,

I'm getting the same error.
I've tried changing to the default city and still no luck.

Erik/Radpi/Peter,

This is being caused by a known issue with non-decimal point separators being used by the Operating System. The development team are looking into it.

Cheers,

Simon
