In-Place Family Warning

If you have ever had to work with in-place families in Revit, you know that they are fairly tough to deal with. Everyone has their reasons for making them, but sometimes far too many are created. This addin will offer a virtual “hand slap” to remind people that this tool needs to be used purposefully. This is also done with a fun reference to a popular 90s movie.

The Parallax In-Place Family Warning plugin installs as an application-level addin and requires no user interaction. it simply launches when an In-Place family is attempted. If the user chooses to continue, the popup will no longer appear for the rest of that Revit session. (This tool initially had a password, but completely locking users out isn’t our style.)
