Hi team

When we import geometry from Revit, the Revit category is displayed before the family name. We used to be able to search based on the category, but that function doesn’t seem to work right now.

Below is an example where I wanted to parse all `Floors`

Thanks for reporting this @MarkLabrosse  
It might have slipped through on our refactor of that view.

We will make for to reinstate that feature.
