Ribbon Tab/Panel Names

[irneb]

The tutorials are outdated, the new version seems to ask for a tab_key and a panel_key. These then point to a resource string with the actual names of such. At present it seems as if these have to be added to each ExternalCommand.

It would have been more conducive if the keys in each command could point to a resource of (e.g.) the ExternalApplication. That way it would be possible to have only one place for these names, and then each command in the addin referencing that. However, doing it this way at present brings up an error in Revit:

Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: tabName

Would it be possible for the names to be retrieved from the project-wide resources instead of those specific to each command? Perhaps this issue should rather be in the RevitDevTools repository, though I'm unsure where to place it.

Do you get the problem after installing the templates, creating a new project and then build it right now (without any changes)?
