Occasionally, the rooms defined in the Revit BIM model do not have a defined area. To only measure rooms without a defined area, the "Measure rooms without a defined area" filter has been added. This filter can be accessed from the Global quantities filter option from the "General options" button 
in the Assign items and quantity extraction window.
Another display state has been added to the list of elements in the Assign items and quantity extraction dialogue box. When clicking on the header of the quantity details table or on the header of the elements table, the displayed tables can be toggled.
The status can be changed successively by clicking on the header.
To assist in locating the assignments between the Revit entities and the items of the bill of quantities linked to the Revit BIM model, a list of all the defined entity-job item assignments is displayed. In this list, the entity or item of the selected assignment can be located. The Entity-job item assignments option can be accessed from the options button in the Assign items and quantity extraction window.
It is possible to mark the elements that the user does not want to measure in a given item. This tool supplements other existing tools to filter and define what will be measured. The possibility to mark elements to avoid quantities is available once a Revit element has been linked to an item and the appropriate extraction combination has been selected or created. In the quantities detail table that is created, the user can mark the elements of each line that they do not want to measure by means of a selection box located at the beginning of each quantities detail line.
To help users identify and check quantity details, all the cases of the existing link between the Revit element and job item that have been selected for the quantity extraction, can be displayed. The cases can be viewed in the "Assign job items and quantity extraction" dialogue box by pressing anywhere along the bar on the header of the quantity details table. By pressing again on the same bar, the quantity details are displayed.
To help users identify the user combinations that are used in the quantity extractions, the "Name" and "Description" fields have been added in the "Parameter selection to obtain quantities" dialogue box.
To help users minimise errors in the extraction of quantities from the BIM elements of a Revit model, a series of basic checks related to the combination of Revit parameters that are used in the extraction have been implemented. When an error is detected, both the item and the linked Revit entity are marked with the 
symbol.
The warnings that can appear with the checks that are carried out are:
(Verify use combination for the extraction of the quantities).
symbol and in items with so they can easily be found.
The "Add level" tool is included and there are more available alphanumeric parameters and numerical fields of material examples for comments when measuring by material quantities.
Users can now configure the comments of the quantity lines of items that use materials, by means of alphanumeric parameters or numerical fields. The alphanumeric parameters are available in the items that use that material. Numerical fields were already used to carry out the calculation combination.
When, from the "Assign job items and quantity extraction" dialogue box, there is more than one link of several Types of the same Family to the same job item, the Match column allows users to use the same combination in entity links of the same family.
It is possible to match the sets of measurement rules of several entity links with a job item. When one of them is modified, the modification is applied to all the links of that job item. If the project already had different rules (quantity combinations) in the same job item, the program does not unify them; it only does so if one is modified.
All entities (Types) that are linked to a job item will have the same set of measurement rules because they refer to the same job item.
More options have been included within the "Deduct openings greater than" option to take into account more measurement rules, e.g. the possibility to deduct only one part (usually 50%) of openings that are smaller than a given value, and deduct them all if they exceed that value. The set of measurement rules for openings can be accessed using the "Set of measurement rules for openings" button. Here, users can:
The number of fields available for openings measurements and for measurements of elements that use a material have been increased.
When a Revit entity or material with the possibility to have openings deducted is linked to a budget item in Arquimedes, all the numerical parameters of elements and material quantities that produce openings are made visible in the “To deduct” tab, when the option “Deduct openings greater than...” is activated. For example, in a "Wall", both the dimensions of openings provided by the Revit complement and the numerical parameters of the elements that produce openings (windows, doors, etc) are shown in the "To deduct" tab.
When the Revit BIM model that is linked to Archimedes contains Revit links, the "RVT Links" section appears in the Revit entities tree. This section aids users to obtain quantities and to make comments in the quantity tables of the selected Revit link.
A new zone called "Links" is also included in the "Quantity filters" option that appears when the new zone button is pressed. In the "Links" area users can mark, to "Show" or "Measure" Revit links to see the number of instances that contain the links and to activate the option "Detail elements" in the quantity tables, depending on the composition of the comments that is defined.
