Today the call for proposals opens for AU 2019 – and its accompanying Forge DevCon – in Las Vegas. I was informed of this fact by an email which very creepily contained a photo of me describing something or other with my hands. (Jeremy Tammik speculated that I was once again talking about zombies. 🙂 […]

I've been spending a lot of time talking about the work we're doing with Dynamo and Refinery – especially as it relates to our plan to share a version of the "Project Rediscover" graph at AU London 2019. But there's more my team is hoping to be able to share in mid-June at Tobacco Dock: […]

This is "one of those weeks", with presentations in Munich on Wednesday, Barcelona on Thursday and London on Friday. I haven't had a week like this since the old DevDays tours. The good old days! I arrived on Tuesday night at Munich Airport. Wednesday's event was the Automotive Innovation Forum in Munich. It's the first […]

Last week I thoroughly enjoyed a short week at the first Forge Accelerator in Dublin. (It was short – for me – because I arrived on Monday afternoon and headed home, already, at Thursday lunchtime.) It was only my second time ever to visit Ireland, but the second in just a few months, and my […]

A question came up during this week's Forge Accelerator in Dublin that I thought would be of broader interest. It related to the fact that the Forge viewer's default behaviour when you double-click the background and perform a zoom-to-fit isn't always desirable. In this case the developer was fine with a zoom-to-fit being performed, but […]

After having spent a great few days with the Toronto team, I headed home on Friday afternoon. I did have a little bit of "fun" getting home, though: firstly the UPExpress going from Union Station to Pearson Airport stopped – ostensibly waiting for the right signal – for about 30 minutes. It wasn't a big […]

There's a series of webinars starting next week that will help you get a grip on what's coming with various Autodesk platforms, both cloud-based and desktop. It's also a chance to catch up on some of the content that was presented at last year's DevCons. All the below webinars start at the same time: 8am […]

There's a lot happening inside Autodesk at the beginning of our Fiscal Year 2020. FY20 has kicked off with a number of internal reorgs in various groups: as part of broader changes, the organisation to which I report – formerly known as OCTO (the Office of the Chief Technology Officer) is being renamed to Autodesk […]

The week before last I headed across to Zurich for the day for meetings. During the afternoon I passed by the NEST building in Dübendorf – home of the DFAB House project – to meet with NEST's Director, Reto Largo, and talk more about our plans to collaborate. To learn a bit more about what's […]

There's great news for Forge developers looking to modify Revit models – or perform various other operations inside Revit – in the cloud. To complement the current offerings of AutoCAD, Inventor and 3ds Max in Forge's Design Automation API, you can now run headless Revit in the cloud, too. As of Monday of this week […]
