keyboardshortcuts.txt

Revit's solution to customizing keyboard shortcuts seems quite tedious:
- When i set a new shortcut i have to check manually if it is not in use already.
- After changing one or more shortcuts i have to restart the application to be able to use it.
This could be much improved.

make tool option behaviour consistent - either remember them all or reset them all after command execution

E.g. the trim tool remembers which sub-tool in the option bar was last used, the on the other hand mirror tool will always switch back to "copy" option. The last i find particularly annoying becaus to me "copy" shouldn't be the default behavior for any translation tool (it's not for move or rotate in Revit either).

option to add keyboard shortcuts for all commands, e.g. ...

...switch between trim options

automatic numbers when duplicating families

Revit adds a number to the name of a newly duplicated family/increments an existing number at the end of the family name. As many families names have numbers indicating dimensions even in the families shipped with revit, this behavior is nonsensical. Please drop it altogether, there is hardly a case where i won't have to rename manually anyway, if i forget, just give me an error feedback.

custom backup file location

Revit saves automatic backup files with the extension *.????.rvt in the same location as the original project file. As i usually have several Revit files in one folder, this creates a messy situation with tons of backup files in one folder. When i backup my project data i have to clean out these intermediate backups first to avoid bloated backups. Please give me an option to change the location of automatic backup files.
