Description

Keynote Watcher is a Keynote Manager + feature that monitors keynote files for open Revit projects and notifies the user of changes. For users who are working on the Revit file while another team member is working on the keynote file, this allows them to ensure that their keynote file is up to date at all times.

Keynote Monitoring

When turned on, this function finds the keynote file for each open Revit project (excluding family files as they have no keynote file). Keynote Watcher then monitors those files for changes and pops up a balloon notification (similar to Windows Update notification) notifying the user which file has been changed and needs to be reloaded. The user can simply ignore this notification and keep working, or stop and reload the keynote file.

When a file is printed, Keynote Watcher also checks to see if the keynote file for the project to be printed has changes that have not been reloaded. If the file has been changed the user is warned that the print may have incorrect keynote values and is given the option to cancel the print or proceed.
