I am trying to find a text string on a file in Revit, the search and replace function finds all the occurrences of said text string, but I find no way of centering or zooming on it as you can do in AutoCAD by clicking on the "zoom to highlighted result" button.
How can I achieve this?, any help is appreciated.

Unfortunately Revit does not tell you exactly where the word is but it does tell you what view it is in, which in your case is the floor plan 'OVERALL'.

The problem is that the OVERALL view contains more than 200 room layouts, and finding the needed one is really time consuming, I actually had to export this view to ACAD, search for the particular room layout there, and once I know its location go back to Revit to copy it. I would really appreciate not having to jump from Revit to ACAD every time I need to find a layout, but if Revit does not have a feature to zoom or center on the text I search, I guess I will have to stick with my method.
Thanks for your reply
