Saving and Editing Commands in Revit Using AI with BIMLOGIQ Copilot for Join Order Adjustments
Learn how BIMLOGIQ Copilot reverses join order between columns and floors in Revit, then extends the command with selection and type filters to make it reusable across projects.
In this video demonstration, the focus centers on how users can save and edit AI-generated commands within BIMLOGIQ Copilot, converting single-use modifications into reusable utilities adaptable to changing project requirements.
The demonstration tackles join order management between structural components in Revit — a frequently repetitive task, particularly in concrete construction where floors meet columns. Revit’s default behavior sometimes cuts columns using floors, which may not reflect proper structural intent.
BIMLOGIQ Copilot’s artificial intelligence automatically corrects this join order. Two user-provided instructions guided the process:
First instruction:
Switch the join order between all structural columns and all floors. Check it between all Structural columns and all floors.Second instruction:
Add a field for selecting structural columns, and another field to choose the structural column type for filtering the selection for only selected types.The AI reverses join order positioning so columns cut floors instead, then extends functionality by introducing selection parameters for particular columns and type-based filtering options (such as “C1” or “C2” designations). This approach enhances precision, maintains uniformity, and reduces repetitive work across subsequent projects.
