RS.BIMManager

Version history

1.16.23–1.16.24 | 05.10.2026

  • New “Pay as you go” licensing mode: top up the RS-Systems account on the website, then any suite product can run for 1 cent per minute of actual work. Only active minutes are charged: input in product windows or panels, command execution, long processing, or background model work; an open but idle window is free. The 1 cent/minute charge is per computer regardless of how many products are running; Internet is required. The account is connected with a device code (the password is never passed to the product); connecting it in one product enables the mode in all. Priority: license → regional promotion → active trial → pay as you go, so licensed or trial products do not consume the balance.
  • The status line shows the balance (“Pay as you go: balance 12.34 USD (≈ 20 h 34 min)”). With less than one hour left, an indicator, “≈ N min left — top up your balance”, and a “Top up” button appear. There are no balance pop-ups. Without a connection or with an empty balance, commands and panels do not start; already open windows and running processing are not interrupted. “Pay as you go” (connect, top up, disconnect) is now available in the startup and License windows.
  • A new product first uses its own 90-day trial—even if an account is already connected—and only then starts consuming the balance together with the other suite products. An expired trial does not restart; an individual product license still takes precedence over pay as you go, while the other products remain on pay as you go. Status: “Trial: N days left. Then — pay as you go.”

1.16.16–1.16.21 | 30.09–01.10.2026

  • The RS-Systems theme has been aligned with the website colors: cyan accent, amber section labels, and website-style buttons. List, tree, and field backgrounds are #07171E (nothing is darker); the window background is 15 RGB units lighter. Filled surfaces carrying text or icons are no longer cyan. Revit’s own Light and Dark theme colors are unchanged.
  • The colors of “added / changed / removed” markers have been aligned with the new palette.
  • Fixed: small auto-sized dialogs (for example, “Revit Tabs”) no longer stretch across the full screen width.

1.16.12–1.16.15 | 28–29.09.2026

  • Website updating has been redesigned: the check now distinguishes the current version, an available update, an unpublished installer, and an unavailable website; downloads run in the background with progress and cancellation, the installer is verified by SHA-256 and launched after Revit closes. Settings now combines theme, license, updates, and build information; ribbon order is standardized: Params in Manage, Browser in Tools, MCP in AI.

1.12.0–1.16.9 | 23–26.09.2026

  • The RS-Systems interface has been updated: Manage / Tools / Models / AI panels, compact equal-size buttons with short English labels, Revit-style icons for Light and Dark themes, automatic window placement inside the monitor work area with DPI awareness, and optional coloring of Revit view tabs by project or file.
  • A project no longer requires a root model. The project catalog is stored in the CDE folder, a link to it is written to project models, and BIM Manager is available from any project file. Families, parameters, and view templates can be transferred between any project files; the permanent reference model and history store are no longer used.
  • “Family Parameters” can use multiple shared-parameter files at the same time, add and replace parameters, formulas, and values, and save reusable presets. Old RS.CDE project databases and the previous standards history are not migrated automatically.

1.11.4 | 10.09.2026

  • Application windows use their own icon. F1 help and interface localization are not yet implemented.

1.11.2

  • Links can be added from the project model list with checkboxes or by file path. Loading a model into itself is blocked.

1.11.1

  • The pending-changes list now has scrolling and checkboxes. Unchecked changes are cancelled when applying.

1.10.0–1.11.0

  • Project models can be compared with a reference, and selected content can be accepted into the root model. Project standards are stored in the root model with version history and rollback.
DESCRIPTION

RS.BIMManager

RS-SYSTEMS • AUTODESK REVIT 2021–2027

Overview

RS.BIMManager is primarily designed to automate routine operations across several project models at once in different supported versions of Autodesk Revit. The user only needs to select a project, one or more models, and the actions to perform. Once started, the solution processes the files in sequence—opening them when necessary, applying changes, saving, and synchronizing workshared models—without further human involvement, then produces a detailed report.

Key features

Links and worksets

Batch link operations include adding and removing RVT links, loading and unloading them, replacing paths in bulk, choosing relative paths and a positioning method, and assigning links to worksets. Worksets can be read from closed files, created, renamed, deleted (in Revit 2023+), opened, and closed. Rules also apply to worksets in linked models, including closing selected worksets when a link is loaded. Elements of specified categories can also be moved to target worksets.

Views and view templates

BIM Manager reads 3D views, floor plans, reflected ceiling plans, sections/elevations, and other views in the selected models. For selected views, you can assign or remove a template in bulk, change visual style, detail level, discipline, and scale, control category visibility, and enable or disable the crop region and its boundary display.

View templates can be transferred between any project files. Operations apply only to models in which the corresponding view or template is found, allowing settings to be standardized consistently across a large set of files.

Levels, parameters, and families

Levels can be read, added, renamed, and deleted in several models at once. Shared parameters and their bindings, families, and view templates can be transferred between selected project files. Family parameter tools support multiple shared parameter files simultaneously, adding and replacing parameters, formulas, and values, as well as reusable presets.

Batch execution and monitoring

Changes can be prepared as a list of operations, reviewed before application, and then run across the selected set of models. Where the Revit API allows it, model, link, and workset information is read directly from closed files, so there is no need to open each model beforehand. A detailed report is created for every model and operation after execution.

The project catalog is stored in the CDE and is accessible from any project file. BIM Manager can also monitor selected models and maintain a change log for watched files. This enables centralized bulk changes and result checking without manually visiting each model.

Licensing and payment

The same arrangement applies to all plugins in the RS-Systems product line: a trial period first, followed by a choice of a license for an individual plugin or time-based billing for the entire product line.

90-day trial. The plugin is fully functional and free. The trial period is counted separately for each plugin.

Individual plugin license. Purchase it at rs-systems.org and activate it with a code or a .rslic file in the license window. A licensed plugin does not deduct funds from your balance.

Time-based billing for the entire product line. Top up your rs-systems.org account balance through PayPal, and any plugin in the product line can run at a rate of 1 cent per minute of use. You pay only for minutes in which the plugin is actually used: running a command, entering information in a window or panel, or processing in progress. An open but idle window is not charged. No matter how many plugins run on the computer simultaneously, the total never exceeds 1 cent per minute.

Connect once. On the “Time-based billing” tab in the license window, click “Connect account…” and confirm the displayed code in your account area. The connection applies to all plugins in the product line on this computer; your password is not passed to the plugin.

Each new plugin starts with its own trial. If your account is already connected, a newly installed plugin starts its own 90-day trial without extra prompts and switches to time-based billing when the trial ends.

A license takes priority over time-based billing. While using time-based billing, you can purchase a license for an individual plugin at any time: charges for that plugin stop, while the other plugins continue on time-based billing.

Balance and internet access. Time-based billing requires an internet connection. The remaining balance appears in the plugin window’s status bar; when it is low, a “Top up” button appears there, without popup reminders. If the balance runs out, new commands cannot start, but processing already in progress is completed. Top-ups, charge history, and connected computers are available in the “Time-based billing” section of your account area.

Compatibility

Autodesk Revit 2021–2027. Operations use the API of the corresponding Revit version; some features depend on version-specific limitations. For example, deleting worksets is available starting with Revit 2023.
