how to working in big file （CAN CUSTOM EXPORT SDB FILE)

[zhuxuan09]

Dear Mason
When it working in big file , it takes a long time
ALL MEP is in one file , but I only want to check one item （e.g. drainage )
Compare can selection Categories , but Snapshot can't by Categories.
So , I need a lot of time to export Snapshot file .
I hope it can export by categories .
I am chinese , my english is bad
I see the code , it mybe need modify SnapshotMaker.cs file

// retrieve all of the instance elements, and process them.
FilteredElementCollector coll = new FilteredElementCollector(_doc);
coll.WhereElementIsNotElementType();

May I change this ? Because the code is too complicated , I am a novice

Zhuxuan09, Yes – you’re on the right track. Go ahead and try a change like that (just make sure that you can only compare the same way). I would also recommend making sure that you get Drainage family types and drainage family instances.
