titleIn Sync Views mode, Revit sometimes intercepts the "CTRL-H" command. Instead of showing the replace Base Circuits dialog, Revit annotates the menubar.

If you enable the Sync Views mode, click on a Hysopt Base Circuit, and subsequently press CTRL-H to replace this Base Circuit, Revit sometimes intercepts the command to show annotations on the menubar. The Replace Base Circuit functionality of Hysopt is not loaded.

Unfortunately this is a Revit limitation that cannot be fixed.
However, there are some workarounds to avoid it :

  • don’t click too quickly on different hysopt Base Circuits
    (give Revit the time to sync the view and highlight the Revit element before clicking on the next Base Circuit)

  • lower the higlight time in the settings page to 1 second

  • Disable the Sync Views mode when replacing Base Circuits

titleWhat if you change your Hysopt model or Revit model outside the Hysopt BIM Syncer

The changes will be detected when you re-validate.

Errors might occur when you removed some items. The mapping in the Hysopt BIM Syncer might think they still exist.
