Renumbering Points

Is there a trick to renumbering points automatically? The only way I can renumber any points is by doing it manually.

Im using Revit 2021

Let us know what result you do get when trying to do automatic renumbering. You need to check which type of points to renumber or use the All option alongside selection via filter, and set a start number to renumber by. You can run into problems if you don't set that starting number, select types that are not used in the model, or do not have edit capabilities on the points (Which should not be the case if you can manually edit those numbers).

Thanks,

Kind of got the hang of it, but a few odd things

placing a manual point as an electrical Pt and then I try to renumber it and choose the electrical Pt option will not renumber the points. It will only renumber the points if I choose the all (use filter) option

Doesnt make sense but it works, Thanks!

This may be related to the new dynamic types functionality where you can basically mark the type as anything you want instead of the previously limited selection (As represented by those check boxes). I'll take a look into this for the next release, but for now I believe you have a way forward.

Thanks,
