Revit 2025 definetely needs a separate installer, but before that I think that single installation is fine. But I might have just copied the .dll file of the extension to other Revit versions. I can't remember since I've had it for a long time already

Find in which room is a revit pipe which location is a line 😂 it can be in 4 rooms at same time or in nonebecause the room volume doesn't reach the slab above just the ceiling height! If you are only architect do it with a facade wall
I guess pipes can be segmented with room boundaries if that's important to know which room they are part of. Or you could provide a list of rooms through which pipe travels, but then you would need another snippet to determine if point is in the room or not. There is some method to easily determine if point is inside of BoundingBox or not. Also if your pipes are above the room, You can create points from your pipes with lowered Z values, It won't affect elements, but you will be able to test if lowered point is inside of a room or not. Didn't get the point about facade wall.
I think you can install Revit lookup on another machine and copy RevitLookup.dll file to extensions folder if admin rights is an issue. But try talking to the IT security in your office, Revit Lookup is made by Jeremy Tammik and he is deeply involved in Autodesk and Revit API. I believe he is part of their team so it's legit plugin and it's open-source.
The link you added for the installation file is no longer in use. Can you please add a new link because current github page looks different and it doesn't tell anymore which release is compatible with which one. I use Revit 2022, not sure which is compatible with mine. And also there are single user and multi user options, which one should we choose? Thanks.
They have released a completely new version after I made this video. I believe new version should cover all recent Revit Versions, so I would give it a try and install it. It will also look a little different, but the same logic applies. If you are keen on getting older versions we can explore all releases and find the one for specific Revit Year. Use this link: github.com/jeremytammik/RevitLookup/releases And then you can scroll through different releases and find the one you are looking for. The latest version(2024.0.8) has installation files for Revit 21, 22, 23, 24 So you can pick the one you need. Look in assets for each release, latest release has a file called (RevitLookup-2022.2.8-SingleUser.msi) Regarding Single/Multi installation files, I would just grab single user. They have description for them as well: Single-user installation is for one user only and does not require administrator rights. Multi-user installation requires administrator rights and is installed for all users. Happy Coding!
@@ErikFrits Thank you so much for quick reply! Btw I've installed the latest version and then 2023 version but both didn't work with Revit 2022. Finally 2022 version worked. :)
@erik Frits Great video. Do you think is possible to copy the room Data from a link architecture model? I use my MEP model so the room are store in a link file. I can get some values (name, number) when i create MEP spaces but i'm looking for another solution to read and copy the data from room without the need of creating MEP spaces. Thanks!
Thanks It's possible to get values from linked RVT file . Each Revit link has its own doc, and you can get them all with app.Documents. Then once you have doc_A and doc_B, you can definetely read rooms and their values, and you need to come up with logic how you want to get this information.
Great Video man, looks like a super useful tool
Thanks.
Yeah it's the most used Plugin when we want to create a Revit plugin. It's such a game changer.
Great Video!😁
Glad you liked it!
Thank you !!
Happy Coding!
@@ErikFrits This Script has enabled me to create Room Data Sheet within revit
Oh Great, glad you found a use of the script for your workflow!
If you have multiple Revit versions, should you install look up for each version?
Revit 2025 definetely needs a separate installer, but before that I think that single installation is fine.

Happy to help.
Thanks for the feedback, I wanted to test it for quite some time if the latest installer supports all versions. Now I know :)
