Revizto 5.16 has arrived, bringing a suite of powerful new features and enhancements designed to elevate your workflow. This latest update introduces a new tool in 3D mode that lets you view a sheet and the model side-by-side, a new “Select box” feature giving you more control in 3D, the ability to modify existing isolations instead of overriding them, a new “Required Objects” clashing type, and more. The new features will provide improvements throughout the full project lifecycle, from design to operations. Explore the full details of this update:

2D/3D split view

Who’s it for?

This feature is designed for everyone—whether you’re an architect, engineer, designer, contractor, or subcontractor.

Why was it implemented?

Users can now view 2D and 3D side by side, enabling a more seamless workflow by leveraging both sources of information simultaneously. Issues and markups are now visible in the 2D space, enhancing issue management. Previously, users had to switch between tabs to access this functionality.

How do you use it?

Simply click the 2D/3D icon in the top toolbar, select the sheet, and get started. Your location in 3D is displayed on the sheet, and clicking on the sheet will take you to the same location in 3D.

Select box

Who’s it for?

This feature is designed for everyone—whether you’re an architect, engineer, designer, contractor, or subcontractor.

Why was it implemented?

Previously, users had to tediously select elements one by one. Now, with selection boxes, multiple objects can be selected effortlessly, making the process significantly more efficient and user-friendly.

How do you use it?

Hold the Ctrl button and drag your mouse from left to right to select all objects that fit inside the outlined area. If you drag your mouse from right to left, it will also select the objects touched by the outline. On tablets, where you don’t have a Ctrl button, you can enter the select box mode through the context menu in 3D.

Modify object isolation

Who’s it for?

This feature is designed for everyone—whether you’re an architect, engineer, designer, contractor, or subcontractor.

Why was it implemented?

Users often found it frustrating to isolate only one model, element, or group at a time, requiring them to create complex search sets and appearance profiles to achieve their desired view. Now, with enhanced isolation functionality, they can layer isolates on top of each other, streamlining what was once a complex workflow.

How do you use it?

Modify the existing isolation instead of overriding it. You can add objects to the current isolation. If you need to isolate only a subset of the existing isolation, you can do that through the Intersect option. Whether isolating on the fly, or in the appearance profiles, you can now quickly use familiar isolation tools with improved functionality.

Revamp of 2D gallery

Who’s it for?

This feature is designed for everyone—whether you’re an architect, engineer, designer, contractor, or subcontractor.

Why was it implemented?

Revizto’s 2D interface has long needed a refresh—now, with an improved visual design and enhanced features, users can quickly access the files they need. Search functionality is now folder-specific, and 2D/3D overlays can be selected directly from the directory level, making navigation more intuitive and efficient.

How do you use it?

  • Search now operates at the folder level—by selecting a folder, you can search within the files it contains, streamlining file retrieval.
  • You can quickly access the 2D/3D overlay using the icon next to the sheet name, enhancing navigation efficiency.
  • Sheet filters are now conveniently selectable from the top ribbon, offering faster customization.
  • Folders can be easily navigated through the intuitive folder tree panel, improving overall file organization and access.

New "Required Objects" clashing type

Who’s it for?

This feature is designed for everyone—whether you’re an architect, engineer, designer, contractor, or subcontractor.

Why was it implemented?

Revizto is expanding beyond clash detection and into validation rule sets, providing users with the tools to ensure elements are correctly placed and meet required specifications. The new ruleset functionality allows users to validate a wide range of conditions, such as:

  • Ensuring fire exit signs are positioned above fire doors
  • Confirming that rooms contain the required elements according to specifications
  • Verifying that fire dampers are installed in fire walls

How do you use it?

New clashing types have been added to the Revizto Clash Automation wizard when setting up a clash to check whether an object is present in an expected location.Check whether object A has the required object B in proximity, inside of it, or directly above or below it.
