Looking to learn or download Dynamo? Check out dynamobim.org!
You'll need Visual Studio and a git client to build Dynamo. Find more about how to build Dynamo at our wiki.
Dynamo is an open-source project and would be nothing without its community. You can make suggestions or track and submit bugs via Github issues. You can submit your own code to the Dynamo project via a Github pull request.
###0.7.5 ###
- SAT files read from disk can be automatically updated in Dynamo graph using Geometry.ImportFromSAT
- Floor creation for structural types is now supported
- Element.Geometry and Element.Face no longer crashes when used in Revit 2015 when executed on large groups of Revit geometry.
- Upgraded Excel.Write nodes no longer show as “Unresolved”.
- View.ExportAsImage will now export views other than default {3d}
- Dynamo does not conflict with other addins. Previously, Dynamo would fail to launch in Revit when Unifi, Maxwell, Enum, or Kiwi Bonus Tools or a few other add-in were installed on Revit 2015.
- Users can now run Dynamo as an external program for debugging libraries in Visual Studio
- Better error messaging in Code Block Nodes
- modelcurve.bycurve no longer creates duplicate elements when adding to an array
- Copy/Paste of nodes now maintains lacing setting
- Many more bug fixes
- Current list of known issues
###0.7.4 ###
- Automatic update of Dynamo from changes to files on disk. Use File.FromPath nodes to drive changes from external files like Excel, images, and text files. Files being read from disk are not locked, so you can edit them on the fly.
- Added hooks to allow for Dynamo for Structural Analysis (additional Package) workflows with Autodesk Robot.
- LoopWhile node for iterative workflows
- Package Manager sync and display improvements
- Easier to use Structural Framing nodes
- List.UniqueItems now works on Revit elements, strings, numbers, and geometry and also handles null values.
- Migration tools for 3rd party Library loading
- View selection via a dropdown
- Improvements to Autocomplete (Autocomplete is off for comment areas, better handling of conflicts with 3rd party library class names, commit for autocomplete only with tab, enter, dot and single left clicking)
- Crash fixes for Package Manager
- Libraries loaded from disk or packages now only exposed needed nodes
- Changing Lacing triggers re-execcution of the graph
- Consistent notation for booleans (true/false)
- Import instance does not create multiple instances when regenerated
- Code Block Node output port positioning improvements
- GroupByKeys, List.Map, List.Scan fixes
- Surface.byLoft and Solid.byLoft fixes
- Error message improvements
- Changing location in revit is not picked up as a document change in Dynamo
- Custom node creation fixes (crash and bad input ports on creation)
- Curve extraction from surfaces now works on all surfaces
- Revit element creation and modification improvements, particularly around Views and Levels
###0.7.3 ###
- Autocomplete in Code Block Nodes
- Share user-created binaries (.dll files) through the Package Manager
- Share sample content (.rvt, .rfa, .dyn files and more) through the Package Manager
- Improvements to the core threading model (Scheduler)
- Reduced incidence of unresponsive graph
- Better error messages
- clearing and updating error messages
- Many small geometry improvements/fixes

- For more fixes, see https://github.com/DynamoDS/Dynamo/issues?q=is%3Aclosed+is%3Aissue+sort%3Aupdated-desc
####Back office Improvements:####
- Installer can now run silently for custom deployments
- MVVM refactoring: Standard Code separation and formatting for greater legibility and code reusability
- Separation from Revit dependencies for easier porting of Dynamo to new applications
- Recursion: ScopeIf node for use in recursive custom node workflows (experimental)

Dynamo contains an instrumentation system that anonymously reports usage data to the Dynamo team. This data will be used to enhance the usability of the product. Aggregated summaries of the data will be shared back with the Dynamo community.
An example of the data communicated is:
"DateTime: 2013-08-22 19:17:21, AppIdent: Dynamo, Tag: Heartbeat-Uptime-s, Data: MTMxMjQxLjY3MzAyMDg=, Priority: Info, SessionID: 3fd39f21-1c3f-4cf3-8cdd-f46ca5dde636, UserID: 2ac95f29-a912-49a8-8fb5-e2d287683d94"
The Data is Base64 encoded. For example, the data field above ('MTMxMjQxLjY3MzAyMDg=') decodes to: '131241.6730208' This represents the number of seconds that the instance of Dynamo has been running.
The UserID is randomly generated when the application is first run. The SessionID is randomly generated each time Dynamo is opened.
