Selection Filter

Find exactly what you need in seconds

If you've ever found yourself wasting time manually searching for specific elements in your Revit model, you’re not alone. Whether you’re working on large-scale infrastructure, MEP systems, or detailed architectural models, quickly isolating the right elements is crucial for a smooth workflow.

Revit’s built-in filtering options? Limited and time-consuming.  

That is why we created Selection Filter - a simple yet powerful plugin that helps you find, filter, and analyze elements instantly based on specific parameters. This is a smart search tool for Revit that helps you instantly isolate elements that match specific conditions. Instead of scrolling through long lists and manually selecting elements, you can define filtering rules in just a few clicks.

Here’s how it works

• Select a parameter – Choose from a drop-down list of all available parameters in your model (don’t worry, there’s a quick search feature to find what you need).

• Set your filter condition – Use predefined conditions like equals, greater than, or less than and input your desired value.

• Apply the filter – Instantly see how many elements match your criteria, displayed in an easy-to-read table.
  

No more clicking through endless elements - just quick, easy filtering so you can focus on real work. Instead of searching manually, Selection Filter gives you results in seconds.

How Selection filter changes your workflow for the better?

• Eliminates wasted time – No more scrolling, searching, or second-guessing.

• Improves accuracy – Work with easier filtered, structured data for better decision-making.

• Optimizes your workflow – Spend less time finding elements and more time designing, analyzing, and delivering results.

Schedule Import/Export

Managing project data shouldn’t slow you down. The Schedule Import/Export tool in DIBS42 Hive lets you transfer schedule data between Revit and Excel in a few clicks—keeping your workflow smooth and your data consistent.

Instead of manually editing values inside Revit or copy-pasting between windows, this tool allows you to export schedules to Excel for analysis or updates, then import the changes directly back into your model. It’s a fast, structured way to handle schedules - built for real-world project teams.

How it works

1. Select one or more schedules
   Choose from all schedules available in your Revit project. The tool supports multi-selection for faster batch processing.
2. Export to Excel
   Click Export to save your selected schedules as .xlsx files. Each file is named to match its source schedule.
3. Edit externally
   Open the Excel files, update parameter values as needed, and save your changes.
4. Import back into Revit
   Click Import, and the tool updates the corresponding schedules—automatically mapping values from Excel to the model. File names must match for the update to succeed.

Why it matters

Updating schedules is often tedious, especially in large or multidisciplinary projects. Manual edits are prone to errors, and disconnected tools slow everything down.

With Schedule Import/Export, you get a direct connection between Revit and Excel - cutting down on repetitive tasks, improving data accuracy, and enabling smoother collaboration across teams.

Key Features

• Export Revit schedules to Excel for external editing or analysis
• Import updated Excel data directly into Revit
• Supports multi-schedule selection
• Ensures data consistency between model and spreadsheet
• Eliminates manual re-entry of values
• Ideal for QA/QC, reporting, and data-driven workflows
