Say you need to copy the sketch of a floor to provide an outline for roof. So you edit the floor, tab select its sketch and ctrl-c it to your clipboard2. Now you would need to remember to opt out of editing the floor. If you had accidentally clicked the Architecture ribbon tab, you would find your Roof command greyed out. In order to use it, you need to revert to modify floor again and cancel or ok editing. When implementing this idea, please do not do it the same way you ok or cancel group edits because that window gets hidden every now and again. When fiddling with more complex geometry that involves sweeps or extrusions, this feature would also be beneficial no matter whether you are currently editing a profile, the path or something else that led you astray.

Spell checking is a critical part of delivering high-quality documentation in BIM projects. Currently, in Autodesk Revit, spell check is available only as a manual process, which increases the risk of errors being missed in text notes, schedules, and annotations. In contrast, most Microsoft tools such as Word, Excel, Outlook, and Teams provide real-time spell checking with visual indicators (e.g., red underline), allowing users to identify and correct errors instantly while typing. We strongly recommend introducing a live, automatic spell check feature in Autodesk Revit, with the following capabilities: Real-time spell check with underline/highlighting Support across all text fields (text notes, schedules, parameters, sheet names) Multi-language dictionary support Ability to add custom project-specific dictionaries (e.g., technical terms, abbreviations) Option to enable/disable feature at user or project level This enhancement will: Improve overall documentation quality Reduce manual QA effort Minimize errors in deliverables Align Revit with modern usability standards followed by other Autodesk and Microsoft applications Implementing this feature will significantly enhance user experience and help BIM teams maintain high-quality outputs efficiently. Thank you for considering this suggestion Show More

There is great value in extending Revit’s core hierarchy (Category → Family → Type → Instance) into the Right-Click Menu on selection mode — specifically for Selection, Override Graphics in View, and Hide in View commands. Currently, via Right-Click Menu, these commands operate inconsistently and don’t align with Revit’s hierarchy. Therefore, users have rely on VG dialog, filters, or schedules — slowing down workflows and disrupting the modeling process. Right-Click Menu Proposed Enhancements   1. Selection Command       1.1. Current:                       Right-click → Select All Instances → In View / In Entire Project       1.2. Proposed:            1.2.1. Replace:                       Select All Instances to Select Type – to select all instances of the same type(s).            1.2.2. Add:                       Select Family – to selects all instances of the same family(s).                       Select Category – to selects all instances of the same category(s).   2. Override Graphics in View, or Hide in View commands       2.1. Current:                       Override Graphics in View → By Element / By Category / By Filter       2.2. Proposed:            2.2.1. Replace:                       By Element to By Selection – to control V/G for all selected instances.            2.2.2. Maintain:                       By Category – controls V/G for all instances of the category(s).                       By Filter – links to the filters panel.            2.2.3. Add:                       By Type – controls V/G for all instances of the same type(s).                       By Family – controls visibility/graphics for all instances of the same family(s).   Benefits & Impact This enhancement would deliver a clear, direct, and time-saving workflow, allowing users to manage selection and visibility/graphics at any hierarchy level without detouring through VG dialog or filters. It will speed up and streamline daily Revit tasks, making Revit more intuitive, consistent, and efficient, particularly for large and complex models.   My Proposal in Snapshots:           Show More

Hello, could it be possible to change Room Bounding Line to "Room Bounding Plane" - so there would be possibility similar to walls to define From level Up to Level, so that if rooms are on different Level, they recognize the room bounding line in both levels? Is there possibility to add to families as stairs or loadable families options "room bounding" too? Is there possibility to add roombounding option to Structural elements like beams, so they adapt volume of the room? Please add option roombounding to all structural column types, not only concrete and wood. Virtual recognition of roombounding - if the room isn´t rectangular (wih 4 corners), revit works with x and y boundaries, meaning by circle room, or irregular room, when there is plan region in the max x and y, the room is not recognized im plan. Could it be possible to cut or join geometry between room and room, to recognize volumes when for example one room has 2 level height, but there is Gallery in second level? Thank you Show More

To be able to snap to defined points, such as “Strong or Weak Reference” planes like all of the other items in Revit when working with Revit Tee families.   Ability to control the snap points.  Items like Elbows need an intersection point at the center intersection along both Axis for dimensioning.            Show More

Several categories are missing <Hidden Lines>—this is essential for proper coordination with other models to work 100%.   It’s also messy that <Hidden Lines> in Object Styles do not automatically correspond with <Hidden Lines> in Line Styles. Even worse, Autodesk’s default template assigns a dashed line pattern to <Hidden Lines>.    All subcategories in Object Styles that are tied to specific Revit functions, such as <Hidden Lines>, <Center Line>, etc., should start with < and end with >. These should then be controlled via Line Styles to prevent mixing different line patterns. Show More

We're linking in an architect's DWG to Revit 2024. The architect has "internal islands" in their CMU beyond hatch patterns (at windows) that DON'T show the pattern in AutoCAD (as desired), but they DO show up in Revit (and we can't hide them in Revit without editing the AutoCAD file). This is apparently known behavior by Autodesk:   In AutoCAD, hatch objects can include “islands” that are excluded from the hatch display. However, when a DWG is linked into Revit, Revit does not fully consider hatch island definitions. Instead, it often reads the hatch as a more simplified pattern and fills areas that were intended to be voids. Please fix (fully support DWG files). Manually copying and editing a client's file every time they change it on BIM 360 / ACC / Fusion (or whatever they're calling it now) isn't always practical. Show More

Currently in Revit, only certain elements such as walls can be defined as Room Bounding to delimit rooms. However, in many architectural situations, railings (guardrails) function as the effective boundary of a space, particularly in mezzanines, atriums, circulation voids, terraces, balconies, or open stair landings. Because railings cannot currently be defined as room boundaries, users must create workarounds such as room separation lines. These solutions add unnecessary elements to the model, complicate model management, and can lead to coordination issues. This proposal is to add an optional “Room Bounding” checkbox to the Railing element, similar to the existing parameter available for walls and other bounding elements. When enabled, the railing would be recognized by the room calculation engine as a valid boundary for rooms and spaces. Benefits: Reduces the need for artificial modeling elements (separation lines). Improves model clarity and BIM data integrity. Better reflects real architectural conditions where guardrails define spatial limits. Simplifies workflows for architects and space planning. This feature would be particularly valuable in projects involving multi-level open spaces, mezzanines, balconies, and circulation voids, where railings often define the perceived boundary of a room without being a full wall.

Our projects often include multiple linked CAD files with hundreds of layers. When adjusting Visibility/Graphic Overrides, finding a specific layer under Imported Categories requires manually scrolling through long lists of layer names.   This is time-consuming and inefficient, especially in large and multidisciplinary models.   Revit already provides a search box for Model Categories, Annotation Categories, and Analytical Model Categories. Adding the same functionality to Imported Categories would significantly improve usability and save valuable time. For the sake of interface consistency, it would also make sense to introduce search functionality in all other Visibility/Graphic tabs as well (Filters, Worksets, Revit Links). However, the biggest impact would clearly be within Imported Categories, where layer lists can easily become extremely long.   A small UI enhancement with a major productivity benefit.   If you’ve ever scrolled endlessly through layer lists, please consider upvoting!   Show More

Proposed solution: allow the Key Value (Primary) field in a Key Schedule to be set as a shared parameter (similar to the shared-parameter support added for schedules in Revit 2022). If the primary key value can be a shared parameter, teams could (1) assign parameter values via Key Schedules and then (2) tag those same elements using the primary key value directly without needing workarounds. This would improve schedule-to-tag consistency and make Key Schedules more useful for categories like Rooms that don't have types. Example: when using a Room Finish Key Schedule where the primary key represents a finish set, users could tag rooms directly with that finish-set value (and/or use it in downstream documentation), rather than needing to concoct a workaround because the primary key cannot be shared or tagged, and shared parameters can't be calculated values within a project.

It is bad enough as it is that (in r2025.4) levels are excluded from Selection Boxing them, they remain full sized if they are constrained by a scope box. Scope boxes are allowed even though they do not just get applied to the 3d view. And all other scope boxes remain in vicinity as well. The idea is to make the Selection Box true to its name and present us with a view reduced to the selection. Show More

When working with multiple views in Revit, the "Switch Windows" dropdown panel is often too narrow to display long view names. This makes it difficult to distinguish between views that have similar names, especially when only the end of the name is different. Currently, there is no way for the panel to automatically expand or adjust its width to fit the longest open view name. Suggestion: Please make the "Switch Windows" panel auto-adjust its width to always show the full name of the longest open view. This would greatly improve usability, especially in large projects with detailed naming conventions. Show More
