How to Customize the Project Browser in Revit
The Project Browser in Revit is a key tool for organizing and navigating views, sheets, families, and schedules. Customizing it helps improve workflow efficiency, making it easier to find specific project components.
1. Accessing the Project Browser
If the Project Browser is missing:
✅ Go to View Tab → User Interface → Check "Project Browser".
✅ Alternatively, reset UI layout in Options → User Interface.
2. Organizing the Project Browser
Revit allows custom sorting and filtering of the Project Browser based on parameters like:
View Type (Floor Plans, Elevations, Schedules, etc.)
Phase (Existing, New Construction, etc.)
Discipline (Architectural, Structural, MEP)
A) Creating a Custom Browser Organization
Right-click in the Project Browser → Select "Browser Organization".
Click "New" and enter a name for the new organization.
In the Browser Organization Properties window:
Grouping Tab: Choose how to categorize views (e.g., by Level, Phase).
Filtering Tab: Set rules to hide unwanted views.
Click OK and apply changes.
📌 Tip: Use custom view parameters for advanced filtering.
3. Sorting Views by Discipline or Sheet Number
To sort views logically, customize their organization:
Go to View Tab → User Interface → Browser Organization.
Under the Views tab, create a New Sorting Rule.
Choose a sorting method:
By Discipline (Architectural, Structural, MEP).
By Sheet Number (for construction documentation).
Click Apply → OK.
📌 Tip: Sorting by "Phase" helps manage renovation projects.
4. Customizing Family & Sheet Organization
Families: Sort by category or name for faster access.
Sheets: Organize by Sheet Number or Drawing Set for large projects.
A) Adjusting Family Organization
Right-click Project Browser → Browser Organization → Families.
Choose to sort by Family Name, Type, or Category.
B) Sorting Sheets by Discipline or Issue Date
Go to Sheets → Browser Organization.
Sort by Issue Date, Sheet Number, or Discipline.
Click Apply → OK.
📌 Tip: Use custom parameters for better sheet control.
5. Creating a Searchable Project Browser
To find a specific view/sheet quickly:
Right-click the Project Browser → Select "Search".
Type the view name or sheet number.
Click Find Next to locate it.
📌 Tip: Use consistent naming for easy searching.
🚀 Quick Summary:
🔹 Right-click → Browser Organization to customize sorting.
