Customizable Match Properties Tool – Select Which Properties to Transfer

Customizable Match Properties Tool – Select Which Properties to Transfer

We would like to see an enhancement to the Match Properties tool in Revit that allows users to specify exactly which properties (type and instance) are transferred from one element to another. This would greatly improve efficiency and flexibility, especially when working with custom parameters or when only certain attributes need to be matched.
 
Key Features Requested:
  • A dialog box or checklist to select which properties to match (e.g., materials, dimensions, custom parameters, graphics overrides).
  • Support for both type and instance parameters.
  • Ability to save property selection presets for repeated use.
  • Compatibility with both model and annotation elements.
Example Workflow:
  1. Select the source element.
  2. Activate the enhanced Match Properties tool.
  3. Choose which properties to transfer via a checklist.
  4. Select target elements to apply the chosen properties.
Benefits:
  • Reduces manual editing and errors.
  • Increases productivity for teams working on large projects.
  • Supports more advanced and customized workflows.

@m.roefs I have seen Enhanced Match Properties in Allplan some 20 years ago 💥. Revit still doesn't have anything like that.
