Hi everybody,
I'm searching the purpose of the tools from Revit, but I cannot find the purpose of the Inquiry (IDs things) and Macros panel in the manage tab.
Is there somebody that can explain me (very simple, not to extensive) what these tools can do and wherefore they're used?
- IDs of selection
- Select by ID
- Macro manager
- Macro security
Thanks in advance!
Some information which may help you for your better understanding.
- IDs of selection:
Selecting Elements by ID Number
If you receive an error message during the course of your work, the message may report a problem with an element and refer to that element by an ID number. To help you locate that element in your project, you can select it using that ID number. Your support representative may also ask you to find the element using its ID.
To select an element by ID number
1.Click Manage tabInquiry panel (Select by ID).
2.In the Select Elements by ID dialog, type the ID number, and click Show.
Revit locates the element and selects it in the view. This tool is especially useful if you are trying to locate a view-specific element by its ID.
- Select by ID
Finding an Element's ID Number

2.Click Manage tabInquiry panel (IDs of Selection).
