Ribbon Creator for Revit API: Revit Ribbon Definition – Help and About

We have demonstrated how to generate Revit ribbon creation
code automatically in either C# or VB.NET with the assistance of the Ribbon
Creator of Revit Addin Wizard (RevitAddinWizard) many times before. The Revit
Ribbon Creator provides a cool user interface to help collect necessary data
for all available ribbon groups and items, assign images big or small to them,
and set up associations between Revit ribbon buttons and external commands.

new features are the Revit Ribbon Definition schema invention and the ribbon
creator row/item edition.

dialog:



The version is likely to change in the future, of course.

The new Ribbon Creator of RevitAddinWizard makes Revit
programmers’ life much easier for both C# lovers and VB.NETers.
