Quick Filters

Quick filters are designed to be a fast way to apply a single filter to the entire model without having to go through the UI.

In order to use a quick filter you must first select a single element to use as the base for the filter. Once the base element is selected simply activate the desired quick filter using the split button on the Selection Master panel of the ribbon (this panel will be on the 'Revolution Design' tab).

Quick filters search the entire model for elements matching the base element for the type of the quick filter. For instance, if you want to find all elements on Level 1, select a single object on Level 1 and apply Quick Level. If you want to find all instances of the 'Desk' family (including all types) select one instance and apply Quick Family. Quick Level also has the ability to recognize a single level as the selection element. Select a level in elevation or section and use Quick Level to select everything on that level.

Quick filters work the same as the filters on the UI, but have the following pre-set values:

• All quick filters apply '=' as the comparer, no other comparer can be used.
• Group Handling is always set to 'Groups Only'.
• Multi-Level elements are always set to 'Find Base Constraint'
