    Use of 3D Design tools would benefit from being able to use the eTool Template Library to store their parametric components. This would be particularly useful coupled with the "Share Templates with my... Read more...
    BIM Motivation (why we need this feature): Improve BIM LCA Functionality. As a user, I would like to align my environmental and 3D parametric information. I would like this information to be sharable and accessible initially in Revit but potentially in other tools.
