I&#8217;m so excited to dive into the latest updates that Autodesk Forma has in store for us. We&#8217;ve been hard at work behind the scenes to bring you a faster, smoother, and smarter modeling experience, along with some killer new features for collaboration and analysis.&nbsp;<br>&nbsp;<br>Tune in to our quarterly webinar from November where Daria Golubeva and I introduce these new capabilities and demonstrate how they can enhance your workflow.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\"><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.autodesk.com\/webinars\/whats-new-forma-november-2024\" class=\"\n            MuiButtonBase-root MuiButton-root\n            wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\n            \n            \n            \n            MuiButton-contained\n        \">\n\n        <span class=\"MuiButton-label\">\n            \n            \n&nbsp;Watch the webinar on-demand.&nbsp;\n\n            \n        <\/span>\n    <\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A Faster, Smoother &amp; Smarter Modelling Experience&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Integrated 3D Sketch&nbsp;<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The classic 3D Sketch has been revamped and upgraded to a next-generation 3D modeling tool, now seamlessly integrated into Autodesk Forma. This upgrade brings instant launch times, consistent graphics, better tooling, and a future-proof extensible platform. Imagine starting your day by instantly diving into your 3D model without waiting for it to load. The consistent and enhanced graphics will help you visualize your projects with greater clarity, allowing you to focus on creating stunning designs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-video\"><video height=\"2160\" style=\"aspect-ratio: 3840 \/ 2160;\" width=\"3840\" controls src=\"https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/3DSketch_edit.mp4\"><\/video><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Floor Plans on 3D Sketch Buildings<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Another highly requested feature is the ability to add floor plans to 3D Sketch buildings. Access more granular area metrics and display parking layouts on interior spaces. Sketch conceptual floor layouts and visualize interior spaces directly on your 3D models, allowing you to prototype floor plan configurations and its relationship with the building shell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1486\" height=\"760\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/image001-1.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1167\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Edit Rhino Imports in 3D Sketch<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the most requested features is finally here. It\u2019s now possible to convert Rhino Imports and Generic Volumes to 3D Sketch elements for enrichment and editing. This means you can add floors for area metrics or make other modifications using the same intuitive 3D tools. This seamless integration streamlines your workflow, allowing you to focus on design rather than switching between different tools.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1486\" height=\"760\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/image002.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1169\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to these major updates, several smaller but impactful improvements have been made. It\u2019s now possible to <strong>adjust the size of 3D Sketch primitives<\/strong> before placing them, making it easier to fit them into your design right from the start. This is a step towards making primitive drawing fully interactive, aligning with future plans to unify 3D tooling. Also, the ability to <strong>delete individual floors in 3D Sketch<\/strong> has been added. Previously, deleting a floor required adjusting the heights of other floors, which was not very intuitive.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Significant improvements have also been made to the <strong>snapping functionality<\/strong>. The speed of snapping to elements has been increased by up to 20 times. This improvement benefits 3D Sketch and the Measure Distance tool, providing a\u202fmore responsive experience. saving valuable time and reducing frustration.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Improved Navigation and Collaboration&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New Top Bar Navigation<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Big changes are coming to Autodesk Forma as it transitions from an app to a full-fledged platform. To support this evolution, a new top bar navigation has been introduced. This update is designed to host new functionalities in the near future, making your user experience more seamless and intuitive. This centralized access speeds up your workflow and keeps everything you need right at your fingertips.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1486\" height=\"760\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/image003.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1170\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Comments and Mentions in Board&nbsp;<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Communication and collaboration on your projects just got a major upgrade. You can now <strong>add comments directly on the board<\/strong>, making it easier to engage with team members and share insights. For instance, while brainstorming a new design, you can leave detailed feedback or suggestions right where they are most relevant.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But it doesn&#8217;t stop there. You can also mention other project members in your comments by typing @ in the comment input. This will bring up a list of users with access to the current project, allowing you to select and mention them directly. Once you submit a comment with mentions, the mentioned user receives an email notification with a deep link back to the comment. Picture the convenience of instantly drawing a colleague\u2019s attention to a\u202fcritical design review, ensuring a timely and relevant response.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1486\" height=\"760\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/image004.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1171\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, the board now supports <strong>aspect ratios for frames<\/strong>, such as 16:9, giving you better control over your layouts\u202fand\u202fenhancing your boards&#8217; visual appeal and clarity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To make onboarding smoother, the <strong>board now features an empty state<\/strong> that provides clear instructions on how it can be used. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enhanced Analysis and Simulation Capabilities&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Noise Analysis Out of Beta<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>The noise analysis has finally moved out of beta; it is now a thoroughly reviewed and validated tool ready for your everyday use. Simulate the acoustic environment of your site with confidence and enhance the living experience for your project occupants.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1431\" height=\"805\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/image005.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1172\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/image005.jpg 1431w, https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/image005-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/image005-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/image005-768x432.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1431px) 100vw, 1431px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Across-the-Board Analysis Enhancements<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>But that&#8217;s not all. The Rapid Wind analysis targets <strong>analysis areas of variable size<\/strong>, enabling you to run predictions on far larger zones than before with improved accuracy.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1486\" height=\"760\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/163\/image006.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1173\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, you can now <strong>export wind and microclimate statistics as vector files in PDF and SVG format,<\/strong> allowing you to customize the look of your analysis statistics using other tools.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.autodesk.com\/forma\/2024\/04\/02\/embodied-carbon-analysis\/\">Embodied Carbon<\/a> tool beta now recognizes connected buildings<\/strong>, accurately calculating areas for multi-structure buildings\u202fand\u202fensuring more precise simulations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The daylight analysis tool lets you <strong>filter daylight statistics by exterior surfaces<\/strong> (fa\u00e7ade or roofs). This helps you understand how the different areas of the building envelope interact with natural light. Additionally, the <strong>daylight potential display analysis statistics <\/strong>will help you compare quantitative results more easily.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>microclimate analysis now includes rooftops<\/strong>. This is especially useful for architects designing green roofs or rooftop gardens.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Connect More, Do More!&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Dynamo as a Service Beta<\/strong>&nbsp;<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Exciting news for architects looking to enhance their design automation capabilities!
