    <description>&lt;P&gt;In Revit the save selection feature can sometimes be a big time saver. But&amp;nbsp;the selection feature doesn't let us filter using advanced parameters(like radius, thickness etc..). While this feature is available for visibility filters in Visibility Graphics window,&amp;nbsp;the same&amp;nbsp;feature can be extended to selection as well.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Creating filters to change the visibility graphics of elements with particular parameters, at the same time being able to&amp;nbsp;select(load selection) them whenever necessary for changes.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Override Category/elements just&amp;nbsp;overrides the one you've selected(irrespective of its&amp;nbsp;parameters).&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;If you have a&amp;nbsp;model with &lt;STRONG&gt;2 wall types&lt;/STRONG&gt;&amp;nbsp;from &lt;STRONG&gt;1 wall family&lt;/STRONG&gt; &amp;amp; want to change the visibility of just 1 wall type, filters are the best option.&amp;nbsp;If you override the visibility by category, it overrides the whole family. But if you use the filter tool, you can choose&amp;nbsp;different parameters of the family(thickness, type, length etc..,).&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;In short, the filter tool is a &lt;STRONG&gt;smart way of overriding visibility&lt;/STRONG&gt; using the family parameters instead&amp;nbsp;selecting elements. And the filter tool &lt;STRONG&gt;resides within the view template&lt;/STRONG&gt;. So you don't&amp;nbsp;have to worry about finding the element to override it. You just have to know the category of the element you want to override.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2455105"&gt;@Gangula2&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;thank you. &amp;nbsp;Yes Filters are smarter in overriding parameters of families. &amp;nbsp;I do not use filters very much so i am going to have to learn how to use filters in my models. &amp;nbsp;Thank you for explaining the distinction between the two. &amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
