Give the project browser tabs for: views, legends, schedules, sheets,families,groups,links,assemblies. This would greatly reduce the amount of scrolling/collapsing/uncollapsing
Revit 2019 has a lot of great new features, but no tabbed project browser unfortunately.
The latest roadmap doesn't mention any updates on the project browser, but Autodesk will often adjust the roadmap based on user feedback so it's definitely worth replying on the roadmap page.
Seems project browser is seperated by Views, legends, schedules, panel schedules, families, groups, revit links, and assemblies
How about tabs on the side that would jump you to a catagory quickly, we have this in Cadmep to switch between groups of fabrication elements (see image)I find myself scrolling up and down all the time, that would be a nice change
Considering where the chatbot technology is headed, does it make sense to replace the project browser with a chatbot? You type what you are looking for in plain English, chatbot looks at your current project and provides a list of relevant matches. For e.g. you could type Level 1 floor plan and it will return you a link. When you click on that link, it will open the level 1 floor plan. This is just a very simple example, but your query that you type in plain English can be more complicated. For e.g. in future, you could type "section views that has a ceiling" and it will search through all the sections views that show a ceiling and return a list. Then you can click on any one of the sections.
@Anonymous Sounds like a great idea - voice search would be great too (and learning, so that if you call a certain view something, even if it's not in the title, you can still go to it). You should make a separate Idea post to be voted on - who knows, maybe 30 years from now we'll be able to tell Revit "Open the second floor overall plan"!
Idea proposal - to upgrade the full project browser to a more convenient form of project navigation. The goal of the upgrade is to unload the tree structure of the browser itself. When large volumes of navigation is complicated, so if you break into tabs, it will help facilitate and speed up the work. Navigation is tabbed: - views - all project navigation in drawings; - legends - the legend tab used in the project; - Representation - new tab. Allows you to save everything after rendering images and videos in the project itself; - schedules/quantities - tab of specifications, quantitative characteristics and sheets of materials to determine the quantitative characteristics and analysis of the components and materials used in the project; - sheets-sheet organizer tab for outputting finished documentation - families - all used families; - groups - tab of the combined elements; - links - related projects tab Such a hierarchy in the dispatcher will facilitate navigation during design. Additionally, the search register is built into the browser itself. When using the search, all information entered is filtered and highlighted. A search occurs on all tabs. The browser organization tab is added next to the search query. When merging dispatchers, a navigation bar appears at the bottom. If there are any other suggestions, you can include it in the post itself.
Surprisingly, when I was looking for similar information on the browser, the search did not give out. And then it turns out there was already a subject. After reviewing the content of the topic, the developers paid attention to it, but did not pay due attention. In the branch itself there are also interesting navigation solutions, I can refine the concept of how the browser would look better and all the whims of users were involved.
I decided to work out a more pleasant dispatcher interface at my leisure.

Honestly, coming from another BIM authoring software, I've always found the project browser absolutely ridiculous. Nobody has ever benefited from having their families, views and revit links in the same window.
I'm assuming they were simply dumped there when Revit was first developed, to be resolve/reviewed later and then it was forgotten for 15 years.
I do like the idea of tabbing them but we also have to be able to separate them if needed and we should be able to drag a view and drop it on a sheet on browser to place views on sheets. Ideate apps already does this and it literally says: "How much time do you spend scrolling through the Revit project browser?" on their page.
I think right mouse click and search is already quite useful to get around the browser. Perhaps this context menu could be enhanced by entries like 'jump to sheets' or 'jump to <user defined>'. The menu could also have a tag for allowing/forbidding auto-collapse of the hierarchy.
I would like to be able to open multiple arborescence windows. One for my sheets layouts, an other for groups, etc. So, I could look at the groups and at the sheets without scrolling all the time.
