All Revit® add-ons and BIM solutions are accessible through Dock dashboard

Compact access to all AGACAD TOOLS4BIM product management directly from your workstation – closer than ever

Eliminating the tasks that do not bring value

Take the pain out of managing AGACAD TOOLS4BIM applications:
Simply upload your tools for Revit® and always work with up-to-date versions, try out other AGACAD products, get the newest information and help – all of this is just a few mouse clicks away.

What Dock Is and Why It’s Worth to Use

TOOLS4BIM Dock is a new interactive window in Autodesk® Revit® that you can use to access and manage all AGACAD developed Revit apps and BIM solutions. This tool manager is very practical and a powerful way to simplify Revit apps installation, activation and usage.

Install Any or All Products at Once

Formerly, by the previous AGACAD product installation procedure, each tool for Revit had to be installed and activated separately. Moreover, Revit user had to keep in mind to close Revit before installing procedure. It is now possible to easily install any desired product or all of them at once. It is also very simple to activate tools: you just have to click the Activate button. No more serial numbers but activation codes instead.

Big BIM Solution Layers in a Compact Environment

Previously all the Revit apps were visible in the Revit ribbon separately, each as a special menu tab. AGA CAD owns over 30 applications for Revit so you can imagine how long the ribbon can be… Now all tools are visible in the TOOLS4BIM Dock dashboard, the TOOLS 4 BIM tab is only placed in the Revit Ribbon. You can easily show Dock or hide it from this tab:

The TOOLS4BIM Dock works as a separate window likewise does the Properties palette or the Project Browser in Revit. Position of the Dock window can be changed along the user wishes: you can place Dock dialog to any Revit workplace, the same as with Properties or Project Browser window (on the left/right side of the screen, move to a second monitor or simply deactivate view):

Main Parts of TOOLS4BIM Dock

Try Out Any Tool for Free, Purchase or Get a Quote at Store Directly

Store – access to all AGACAD TOOLS4BIM products at your workstation which makes testing and purchasing convenient. The Store dialog has an overview of all AGACAD Tools4BIM products. Here you can select any tool that you want to try and install it into Revit easily.

Each tool has a short description with a link ‘Read more…’ that takes you to a detailed product description page. After pressing the ‘Get Trial’ button, Revit user immediately receives an activation code to his email inbox. He/she just needs to copy/paste the code to the activation box and the product will be activated immediately. By pressing the Buy button you can directly get from the TOOLS4BIM Dock dashboard to the AGACAD e-shop and buy desired Revit plugin.

My Tools: All Your Products and Their Status Information – in One Place

The My Tools tab is the environment where you can see all installed tools (purchased license or trial). In this area you can see which products are already downloaded or activated, whether it’s a trial or product license, how many days you can even use them (when the trial, subscription or annual license will end) or do you need to update the product version.

Make Sure You Are Always Up to Date

If there is any tool update or related news, a special icon (red bubble) appears near a particular product and the user gets notified which tool requires updating. This way, you can be guaranteed to you always use the latest product version.

Lay Out Tools the Way You Want

In the Tools dialog you can find Product menu of trials or purchased tools and use all of them in your projects.

There is also a possibility to rearrange the tools the way you want to see them in the TOOLS4BIM Dock window. You can easily edit order of the tools and create desired tool groups in the Tools tab. You can hide some Revit add-ons if you know that they will be unnecessary during a particular project. You can also place some tools to the Ribbon or uninstall them if you think that you won’t need certain tools in the future.

So, you can flexibly organize tools according your needs, so that you can use them conveniently. It is pretty simple.
