What. A. Week. The first day of the world's UK Dynamo User Group's first Hackathon was an appropriate way to finish off a hectic but super-rewarding week. [Correction: it seems I misunderstood something… there have been other Dynamo Hackathons, apparently. Sorry about that.] I woke up early, this morning, and took a stroll around Hyde […]

It was a fun (and slightly hectic) 16 hours in Barcelona. After heading back to the hotel from the OTx awards dinner – and whipping out a quick blog post – I got up and enjoyed the view from the 26th floor for a few minutes… … before heading across to the last day of […]

Over the last few months I've been working with my colleagues in The Living to add important – but still slightly speculative – capabilities into the Generative Urban Design tool we've been working on for Van Wijnen. The opportunity presented itself back at Autodesk University 2018, when Lorenzo Villaggi and I were discussing the state […]

On April 5th-6th, 2019 in London, the UK Dynamo User Group is holding its first ever Dynamo Hackathon. Several members of the Dynamo and Refinery teams will be there, as well as yours truly (I'll only be there on the 5th, though, as I have family commitments over the weekend). If you'd like to participate, […]

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 […]

I seem to spend quite a bit of time, these days, talking about the new Autodesk office in Toronto. I did visit one part of the office when I came through in July 2017 – on our world tour – but people hadn't, at that point, fully moved across from the former 210 King St […]

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 […]

Today was a fantastic day. Members of the BIM 360 engineering team based in Gumligen went on their annual ski day and kindly invited me along. We'd originally planned to go on February 1st, but the weather was very poor and so the plan was cancelled. It was rescheduled for today, but only earlier this […]
