What it does

Select Similar adds seven selection commands to Revit. The commands select categories, families, types, or instances matching the current selection in a project or view. They can work with multiple categories, families, and types, and can be assigned to keyboard shortcuts. The commands also support elements such as lines, masking regions, and revision clouds.
