    <description>&lt;P&gt;The Filter tool is one of my favorite thing in Revit.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;But, many times when I try to select something, I have to put a big box around everything and then wait a minute or two for everything in the model to get highlighted. Only then can I pick the Filter tool.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I'd like to see a tool where you could FIRST select the categories you want to pick, and THEN create the box.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;That could often make selecting considerably faster.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;You mean Select a single item from the categories you want, Temporary Isolate category in view, then box select isn't an easy workflow?? (jk)&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Great idea.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Set Selection filter before making a selection</title>
      <link>https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-ideas/quot-pre-filter-quot-selection/idc-p/7735739#M56496</link>
      <description>&lt;P&gt;The current situation is that I can select by crossing all elements in a view and then use the funnel to modify the selected categories. Now there are a lot of ideas to broaden this filter to not _only_ use categories. What I would like to add is a way to set the &lt;STRONG&gt;filter beforehand&lt;/STRONG&gt;. I.e. say I just want to select all doors and windows in the current view. I click the funnel, put a check at Doors and Windows and then I drag a selection crossing over the view, selecting only Doors and Windows. Gives less clutter and probably works a lot faster.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;If you cannot wait for AD to implement this, pyRevit already has that: It is called Pick.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
