Filter Schedule By Family & Type

Filter Schedule By Family & Type

Please add the ability to filter a schedule by Family, Family&Type or by Type this would eneble us to produce flashing shedules similar to the attached image. Each sketch would be a legend and the surounding fields are the properties for that type.

It would be very handy to filter by family or type in schedules. Different duct fittings and accessories use different information, therefore creating multiple duct fitting schedules could go a lot easier if we could filter by name or type. 

 

Filter by: Family contains Elbow 

 

Wouldn't that be nice...?

 

I guess in the meantime I could create multiple project parameters like "Appears in Elbow Schedule" and "Appears in Canvas Schedule" and "Appears in Saddle Schedule"

Any other workaround ideas?

Filter by Type and/ or Family would reduce the number of colums needed in a lot of schedules and would make things spacially in the early phases of a project easier. In advanced project phases usually typemark and mark are heavily used and  allow  good filter option.

From the online help for Revit 2018

 

Filtering is not supported for the following scheduled fields:

  • Family
  • Type
  • Family and Type

 

Those are precisely the fields that I would like to filter on. I'm sure that there is some historical reason why these are excluded but please support these fields in filters. They would make filtering that much more powerful and save us from having to come up with all sorts of workarounds, which just make us waste time.

Agree. I'm always missing this feature and causes my teams to find workarounds. Please add this feature along with worksets to schedules. It makes no sense not to.

Dear Revit Gods,

 

Definitely time to add "filter by Type" and "filter by Family" to the schedule Filter options, please!

Perhaps an obvious idea, but filtering schedules by Family/Type Name would be extremely useful and should have been done years ago now.

 

Why spend all the time carefully setting up names for these when you can't even use them in sorting your schedules?

More of a fix for something that has been broken for a long time now and never resolved by Autodesk.

Please vote up and get this issue fixed, as it's a simple solution for Autodesk to add.

Is there any update on this? Would love to know from Autodesk if they are going to add this. It would be really helpful!

I've used Revit for over 10 years now - HOW IS THIS NOT POSSIBLE YET?!

 

I haven't run into this issue for years apparently and just can't believe this can't be done.

 

It's surely an incredibly useful and easy to implement feature - get it done.

Hello Autodesk

 

Any update on when or if this will be implemented?

It's a software impossibility that I never understood ... and yet its usefulness in nomenclatures is real

I totally agree with you.

It would be great to be able to filter Project Browser by Tpye/Family as well.
