Avoid alphabetical sorting for Project Parameters in Revit 2024

[SBI_R_Kostenko_HKLS]

Hello AU Community,
Previously, all created parameters were sorted according to the creation date.
From Revit 2024 all parameters are sorted alphabetically. This applies to both type parameters and instance parameters in the Properties palette. Alphabetical sorting is always to each parameter group. However, the built-in parameters in the group are not affected.
Is there currently a solution that allows you to avoid the new sorting rules and continue working according to the old rules (by date of creation) ?

If you wish to retrieve all parameter from an element, you can use the Parameters property:

• https://www.revitapidocs.com/2024/7af5d66f-4533-33d2-dd82-d9573eaabf15.htm

It returns a ParameterSet, a set containing all of the parameters that are contained within the element.

Every set is unsorted.

Regardless of how the parameter may be handled internally by the Revit element, there is no way that the sorting (or non-sorting) can affect your add-in or programming access.

So, I do not understand your question in the context of the Revit API.

Are you talking about the end user interface?

In that case, I am afraid this is the wrong place to discuss. Please note that this discussion forum is dedicated to programming Revit using the Revit API. If you are just using the standard Revit user interface, you will probably get more optimal answers to all questions relating to product setup, optimisation, usage, best practices and other end-user support issues in one of the non-API Revit product support discussion forums instead:

Hello Jeremy,

Thank you for your response.
Yes, my question concerns changes to the standard Revit 2024 logic. Namely, the implementation of sorting project parameters in alphabetical order, as well as the abolition of sorting by the date of addition to the project.

That is why I addressed the question here, because these changes affect the work of Revit, without reference to any of the engineering disciplines.

Could you tell me which part of the forum threads would be best suited in this case, since not all of the threads have a wiki description ?

I only know about the API side of things. I would guess the Architectural forum; it is the largest and most generic:
