Isolating sections of large 3D elements within revit models

The most similar to what you describe is combine Selectable In View Filter with BoundingBox Filter like this.
Unfortunately this only works with non linked elements.

To workaround this you will need to Query Elements into the linked documents but using a transformed version of your selection box into Linked Instance coordinates.


RiR-QueryElements-BBox.gh (27.2 KB)

To do that, there is a missing component added here as a Python Script component that gives you the linked document a linked instance is referencing.
