Hi, Is there any way to select all elements of an scope box? I need it to select those elements and set a parameter by zone

@krupal.patelEER7M Try to use this method with multiple scopeboxes. [image] Mark.Ackerley: Try this… Just to get you going I’ve set it to run in an active (3D) view… [Capture.png]

There is. [image] Im not the author of the Python script… i ll link as soon as i found the original post. import clr clr.AddReference('RevitAPI') clr.AddReference('System') clr.AddReference('RevitNodes') clr.AddReference('RevitServices') import Revit import RevitServices from Autodesk.Revit.DB i…

I wanted to point out that using that method results in an “axis aligned bounding box”. Which is what Revit always gives you. This is worth consideration if your scope box or whatever element is not orthogonal. So an angled element results in the following bounding box: [image] Which then yields…

Good to point out! I didnt even know.

Hey John, I like to use the Polygon Containment method :smiley: How to see what elements are in which scope box Whatever Konrad says! Maybe you could use the bounding box to define the 3D extents? Thanks for your awesome work! Mark

Woah! Classic john’s answer from 2016 coming back at me! lol :joy:

So if i understand: Polygon for outline and Height from scopebox?

I’m not at a PC right now, so I can’t be certain it works, but it sounds worth a quick try…

Bedtime right now… Will get back with a graph tomorrow

Use the bb min to create a plane, pull the curves to that, extrude curve as solid by the bb max and see what’s inside it… I had a go here but with areas… Get elements inside an area The complexity was things like walls which are partly inside (and have a line for a location) so it depends if you w…
