Navigate & select.

UI-state tools — they move you around the model and manage your selection, but never edit the document.

Opening views and isolating a selection by name

Open a view

Activates any view by name. Matching is fuzzy and case-insensitive — partial names work, and plans win ties.

When: faster than the project browser every single time, especially in big models with hundreds of views.

Select & zoom

Puts a set of elements into your Revit selection and zooms to them.

When: as the follow-up to a find — "find them" then "select them" — or to hand a set over to ordinary Revit editing.

select all structural columns select the doors you just found and zoom to them

Isolate temporarily

Temporarily isolates elements in the active view — everything else hides. Reversible, like Revit's own temporary isolate.

When: inspecting a set without the noise — checking what a find actually caught before you change it.

isolate @selected isolate all the walls on this level

For permanent hide/isolate with view overrides, see Graphics & tagging.
