BimSyntax - Revit naming standardization

BimSyntax centralizes naming rules for views, families, types, and other model elements. The tool helps teams keep names consistent, review non-compliance, and apply bulk updates based on rules and catalogs.

General Description

The add-in works with categories, scopes, rules, and catalogs to propose structured names and validate whether elements follow the selected standard. It also supports field editing, name regeneration, change application, and profile management.

Key Features

• Naming rules: Define fields, separators, length limits, and restrictions to build consistent names.
• Supporting catalogs: Use controlled codes and descriptions to complete names.
• Compliance review: Detect compliant, partial, and non-compliant elements.
• Bulk application: Regenerate proposals and apply changes to many elements.
• Profiles and configuration: Save general rules or category-specific rules.

Usage Procedure

1. Open BimSyntax and choose the category or scope you want to review.
2. Load or configure the naming rules and supporting catalogs.
3. Review current names and the proposal generated by the tool.
4. Use Regenerate or batch editing to adjust values.
5. Run Apply changes to update the selected elements.
