Select All Objects of Selected Type
Select every instance of a specific family type across the project for batch operations. Pick one element, then run this tool to expand the selection to include all instances sharing the exact same type. Unlike "Same Family," this filters by the specific type within a family, giving you finer-grained control.
Shift+Click and Settings
Shift+Click on Select by Type opens the Settings Hub to the Select by Type page. Previously, Shift+Click switched the output mode from selecting instances to emitting a report of matches; that toggle is now a persistent output_mode setting under Settings Hub -> Selection -> Select by Type with labeled options Select (default) and Report.
