Have you ever wanted to renumber grids in Revit with Dynamo or do another sequential action just to find out that the elements were created “out of sequence”.
Take a look at the grids below. They were created in the order of the number, which means the element ids are also in this order.
If you know how Dynamo thinks, it will sort these by Element ID. Which is normally a good thing.
After following a tutorial from William Wong at Case I developed the next custom selection node in Rhythm.
Notice how the element IDs are in a different order? They are in the order of the model line I drew through them!
This is very useful for renumber processes on various categories in Revit. Currently it is tested on walls, grids, rooms, and doors. But it should work on most any model element.
Check out the video below for some more of it in action and get it on Rhythm.
