API wishlist surveys

This year's API wishlist surveys for AutoCAD Civil 3D, Inventor, Navisworks and Revit are now live:

Our Engineering teams use the results from these surveys to help steer their ongoing API development priorities, release on release. If you have feedback or specific requests regarding our APIs, this is a great way to get them in front of the right people inside Autodesk.

I'd been holding off posting these links – with the hope I could also include AutoCAD's – but as the deadline is here it seems prudent not to delay any further. And when I say "here", the initial deadline for completing these surveys is today – June 11th, 2012 – so if you're interested in providing us with feedback, please don't procrastinate: while I expect they'll remain open a little longer, the deadline probably won't be extended by very much.

And I will, of course, post the survey link for AutoCAD, once it's available.

    Hi Kean,

    I am looking for some good article/location on creating acad plugins for using point cloud data. Do you have any suggestion? I appreciate your assistance. Thanks.

    Hi RS,

    To use point cloud data, you currently need to use C++. To import point cloud data, you can use an approach such as the one I used in BrowsePhotosynth and the Kinect integration for AutoCAD (just search my blog to find out more).

    And you should really post this type of question via ADN or the AutoCAD .NET Discussion Group - you'll get a more reliable answer there.

    Regards,

    Kean
