Find items by ID

Hi there,

I have exported a list from Quantify tool and want to find items by their ID. Is there a utility in OBD to quickly find items by their unique ID?

Thank you

  • Hello Sergi, 

    There is a keyin that would help you select the element easily, select byelemid Element ID, like select byelemid 110300, this will help you highlight the element in the design model easily. 

    See the attached video for reference. 

    Hope this helps you. 

    Regards,

    ABD > BUILDING DESIGNER > FAMILY&PARTS > VERIFY PARTS  is a wonderful tool.

    Sort by ID and tick ZOOM !

    Also, I have a weak recollection of a macro-button in the Quantify xls that when clicked opened ABD and zoomed to the element.
