- [Instructor] Architectural design frequently makes use of repetitive elements. And when you have such elements in Revit, you can use a tool called groups to help you manage them.

And the advantage of grouping something first is that if you then come back and make a modification to one of the instances of that group, that modification will apply to all instances. So it just becomes a very useful way for you to manage those repetitive design elements. So let's go ahead and get started here by making a selection of everything that we see on screen. So I'm going to start down here at the bottom right hand corner and drag a crossing selection around all of the geometry. Now, just to verify, you should see a quantity of 115 over here on the properties pallet, okay? So there are 115 elements in my selection. So now I am…
