Selecting doors on multiple storys

Anonymous — Fri, 26 May 2023 09:44:33 GMT

I would like to change some Door IDs with ID Manager on entire project. How can I select the desired doors on all storys at once? Is that possible?

3D window, Edit menu, Find and Select.

That should do the job for you.

HTH.
Cheers.

Hi Gregor,

You can also use the Interactive Schedule to select desired doors and then change your ID's

Thank you both, but it doesn't do the job for me. I can use 3D window, but then option ID manager is greyed and can't be selected. If I try to change the ID on a big building with many of doors, it is easy to do with ID manager, but with IS would take too long.

I just found usefulness of ID manager to quickly renumerate the doors and windows on my project and I thougth, that I could make a selection of type X door, renumerate them, select type Y,...

Using the ID manager you should be able to change the ID's by criteria or by order of selection and chose the beginning number. Might not be so bad even on a large building.

In the 3D window you can select the types or widths of doors using Find and Select and then just enter the desired ID number in the Info Box and the ID of all the selected doors will change.

Depends on what you are trying to do.
