Power Tools
Some edits take way more clicks than the job deserves. Connect or break two elements in a click.

Drag a box to cut conduit, tray, pipe, duct, or lines.
If you've ever had to rip out the middle of a run (split each segment, delete the bits, fix the ends), you know how long that takes. Power Knife does it in one drag. Anything fully inside the box gets deleted, anything crossing the edge gets trimmed, and it doesn't leave fittings behind. Works in Plan, RCP, Elevation, Section, and 3D Orthographic.

Connect two elements that won't join on their own.
Sometimes two things should be connected and Revit just won't do it. Pick the pair and Power Connect makes the connection. That's the whole tool.
Break a connection without deleting anything.
The other half of Power Connect. When a connection's wrong, pick the two elements and Power Disconnect breaks it cleanly. Nothing gets deleted, nothing else moves.
Rotate elements parallel to a reference, exactly.
Lining something up parallel by eye never quite lands. Parallelize rotates your elements until they're truly parallel to a reference, kept flat to the current view. Pre-select two and it skips the picking; otherwise pick as you go.
