Navigating complex MEP systems in Revit can be difficult, especially when trying to trace the shortest connection between components. Manually isolating paths often involves trial and error and can disrupt workflow efficiency.

With BIMLOGIQ Copilot’s AI, this task is fully automated. In this example, the user entered the following prompt:

Prompt 1:
I have selected two MEP elements. First, find the shortest path between them, and after that, hide all other elements in this view.

The AI analyzes the selected elements, determines the most efficient connection path, and then hides all unrelated elements in the current view. This allows for a focused visualization of the route, supporting better coordination and review—especially in dense mechanical, electrical, or plumbing layouts.
