Search elements
RevitLookup includes a powerful search function that allows users to quickly find specific elements in a project.
The search supports searching by Name, Id, UniqueId, IfcGUID and Type IfcGUID parameters.
Searching for items by IfcGUID is more convenient because it is accessible from the Revit properties panel and is always at your fingertips
Searching by Type IfcGUID finds all instances of a certain type. This is convenient for researching and searching all instances in RevitLookup. Search by Id does not have this capability:
You can search for multiple values at once. If you use different delimiters between values, separate them with a new line. For one separator, such as a space, you can write the query on one line, even with different types
List of available delimiters in priority order:
- Tab
- Semicolon
- Comma
- Space
