Stephen Preston, […]

  • A few years ago I mentioned that my team was looking into learning paths for novice programmers. This effort has led to the "My First Plug-In" series, of which we now have two guides ready: My First Revit Plug-In My First Inventor Plug-In This series is really intended for power-users of Autodesk software who want […]
