Update Pipe Breaks on Save or Open
When inserting fittings or piping the software will go through a regeneration process after each item is inserted. When files are small this is not a big deal. On large projects there is a noticeable delay and the software zooms out to the extents and then back into the area you are working on. Rather than do this on every change, include an option to only do this when the drawing is saved (and possibly when the drawing is opened).

Prompt to Load DM
Add a prompt before loading any DM information into a project. Would be useful when you do NOT want DM loaded in a specific Revit project.
At the project level, would save your response so that you are only prompted once.
At the user level, would have an option to disable the prompt so DM is automatically loaded in all projects like it currently is for customers who prefer that workflow.

Update the Excel Add-in to work in Recent Version of Excel
The Excel Add-in is two pieces: functions in Excel for pulling information from the DM database, and a set of pulldown menus and dialog boxes for inserting these functions.
The functions still work and can be used manually.
The pulldown menus and dialog boxes no longer work in newer versions of Excel.
This wish list item is for us to fix the menus and dialog boxes to work again.
