FalconTools Documentation

Number rooms sequentially by clicking them in order. Specify a prefix (e.g., "A1"), a starting number, and the tool assigns numbers as you pick each room. Optionally updates matching door numbers and places room tags automatically.

• 1 View WarningReminder that the tool only processes rooms visible in the current view. Switch views to work with rooms on other levels.
• 2 Room Number PrefixText prepended to each sequential number. Example: prefix "A1" produces A101, A102, A103. Leave empty for numbers only.
• 3 Existing Rooms InfoLive preview showing how many rooms in the current view already use this prefix and their current numbers. Updates as you type.
• 4 Starting NumberThe first sequential number to assign. Default is 1. Padding width is auto-detected from existing rooms (e.g., 01 vs 001).
• 5 Update Door NumbersWhen checked, doors on the room's perimeter walls that match the old room number will be renamed to the new number (e.g., A102A → A103A).
• 6 Place Room TagWhen checked, a room tag is placed at each room's center point after numbering. A dropdown appears to select the tag family type.
• 7 ContinueCloses the dialog and enters room picking mode. Click rooms in the order you want them numbered.

1. Open a floor plan view showing the rooms you want to number.
2. Click Room Numbering on the ribbon. The settings dialog appears.
3. Enter a prefix (e.g., "A1") and verify the starting number.
4. Click Continue. The status bar shows the next number to assign.
5. Click rooms one at a time. Each room is numbered immediately and the counter advances.
6. Press Esc when finished. A completion dialog shows all numbered rooms (and any renamed doors).

Number doors based on their host room. Select a room, then click doors to number them sequentially with letter suffixes (e.g., A101A, A101B, A101C). The tool automatically fills gaps in the letter sequence when existing doors are already numbered.

FalconTools — Door Numbering ×

⚠ Note: This tool works only with elements in the current view.

How it works:

1. Select a room
2. Tool checks current view for existing door numbers
3. Select doors — numbered sequentially, filling gaps

Example: Room N111 has N111A and N111C
→ Next door: N111B (fills gap), then N111D, N111E...

Single ESC = New room  |  Double ESC = Finish

1 Ignore existing suffixes (always start from A)

2 Automatically tag each door after numbering

Continue Cancel

• 1 Ignore Existing SuffixesWhen checked, the tool ignores any existing door letter suffixes and always starts numbering from A. Useful when you want to completely re-letter all doors in a room.
• 2 Auto-tag DoorsWhen checked, a door tag is placed at each door's location after numbering. A dropdown appears to select the tag family type. Tags are oriented to match the wall direction.

1. Open a floor plan view showing the rooms and doors.
2. Click Door Numbering on the ribbon. Configure options and click Continue.
3. Click a room. The status bar shows the room number and next available letter suffix.
4. Click doors one at a time. Each door gets the next available letter (filling gaps).
5. Press Esc once to select a new room. Press Esc twice quickly to finish.
6. A completion dialog shows how many doors were numbered.

Insert a gap in a room numbering sequence. Enter a room number, and all rooms with that number and higher are shifted up by 1. Door numbers are updated automatically. Use this when you need to add a new room into an existing sequence.

FalconTools — Shift Numbers Up ×

⚠ Note: This tool works only with elements in the current view.

How it works:

Enter a room number. All rooms with the same prefix and that number or higher shift up by 1. Door numbers update too.

Example: Enter A102
• A102 → A103 (Door A102A → A103A)
• A103 → A104 (Door A103A → A104A)
This creates a gap at A102.

1 Room Number:A102

2 Continue Cancel

• 1 Room NumberThe room number where you want to create a gap. The tool automatically detects the prefix and numeric portion. All rooms at this number and above shift up by 1.
• 2 ContinueShows a confirmation dialog listing all rooms and doors that will be renumbered. If the shift would create duplicate room numbers or door marks, a warning is shown at the top of the dialog.

1. Open the floor plan view containing the room sequence.
2. Click Shift Numbers Up. Enter the room number (e.g., "A102").
3. Click Continue. A confirmation dialog shows any duplicate warnings at the top, followed by all rooms and doors that will be affected.
4. Click Yes to apply. Door numbers matching the old room numbers are also updated.
5. A completion dialog shows any duplicate warnings, followed by the full list of rooms and doors that were changed.

Close a gap in a room numbering sequence after removing a room. Enter the removed room number, and all higher-numbered rooms shift down by 1. Door numbers are updated automatically.

FalconTools — Shift Numbers Down ×

⚠ Note: This tool works only with elements in the current view.

How it works:

Enter a room number. All rooms with the same prefix and HIGHER numbers shift down by 1.

Example: Enter A102
• A103 → A102 (Door A103A → A102A)
• A104 → A103 (Door A104A → A103A)

1 Room Number:A102

2 Continue Cancel

• 1 Room NumberThe room number of the removed room. All rooms with the same prefix and a higher number will shift down by 1 to close the gap.
• 2 ContinueShows a confirmation dialog listing all rooms and doors that will be renumbered. If the shift would create duplicate room numbers or door marks, a warning is shown at the top of the dialog.

1. Delete or unplace the room you no longer need.
2. Click Shift Numbers Down. Enter the removed room number (e.g., "A102").
3. Click Continue. A confirmation dialog shows any duplicate warnings at the top, followed by all rooms and doors that will be affected.
4. Click Yes to apply. The gap is closed and door numbers update accordingly.
5. A completion dialog shows any duplicate warnings, followed by the full list of rooms and doors that were changed.

Auto-crop interior elevation views to tightly match the room profile. Eliminates manual crop region adjustment by tracing the visible room boundaries (floor, ceiling, walls) and setting the crop shape to follow the room's actual geometry.

• Elevation View ModeWhen the active view is an elevation, the tool crops it immediately — no dialog, no picking. The crop region is set to match the room profile in one click.
• Sheet ModeWhen the active view is a sheet, a status dialog appears while you pick elevation viewports one at a time. Each selected viewport is cropped immediately. Press Esc to finish.

Crop Interior Elevations

Select elevation viewports to crop.
Press Escape to finish.

This dialog stays visible while you pick viewports. It closes automatically when you press Esc.

1. Open an interior elevation view.
2. Click Crop Elevation. The view is cropped immediately to the room profile.

1. Open a sheet containing elevation viewports.
2. Click Crop Elevation. The status dialog appears.

4. Press Esc when finished. A summary shows how many elevations were cropped and any errors.

Reset an elevation view's crop region to the default expanded rectangle. Removes any custom crop shape applied by "Crop Elevation" or manual editing. Works from both elevation views and sheets (same two modes as Crop Elevation).

1. Open an elevation view or a sheet with elevation viewports.
2. Click Reset Crop. In elevation view mode, the crop resets immediately. In sheet mode, pick viewports then press Esc.

Model Query is an upcoming AI-powered feature that will let you query your Revit model using natural language. Ask questions about your project — room areas, wall types, door counts, schedules, element properties — and get instant answers powered by Claude. This feature is currently in development.

• Natural language queries about your Revit model
• Phase-aware context across project phases
• Room schedules, door/window inventories, wall type analysis
• Fire rating and code compliance checks
• Conversation memory with saved queries
• Choice of AI models (Claude Sonnet 4 or Haiku 3.5)
