Families: Save Out Multiple RFA's from Project RVT

Is there a way to save out families loaded into a project, ones I select, in one step -- instead of doing so one by one?

 

I have a habit of creating a family, loading it into a project, then downstream if I further edit the family I don't always ensure the saved out RFA matches the version used in my project.  I'd like a less tedious way to ensure an RFA library is up to date.  

 

Thank you,

Use the "Save As", "Library", "Family". It will save all the families in your project to a folder of your choice.

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.

Interesting.  This seems to not let you pre-select specific families or all families of a category but at I can work with this -- blow away the ones I don't want after.  And I'm reminded: no periods in file naming (get replaced w/ "-") and smart naming is key!
