Numbers & Coordinates

The Sort Mark tool (included in the MEP Hangers bundle) will be discontinued in 2026. Its functionality is being replaced either by Smart Documentation or integrated into other solutions.

Within MEP Hangers, Sort Mark is replaced by the Numbers & Coordinates command. You can migrate your existing Sort Mark configurations to Numbers & Coordinates in the MEP Hangers ribbon by following this guide.

‘Numbers & Coordinates’ functionality (previously known as Sort Mark) can batch-number Revit elements of any category (not necessarily hangers) and add additional information (such as X, Y, Z coordinates, room or space data, etc.) to the selected parameters.

In the MEP Hangers tool, it comes with some sample configurations (use the Batch Numbering command).

There are configurations for assigning unique numbers to all hangers or MEP elements. Sample configurations also include setups for populating Drilling Point families (found on hangers) with X, Y, and Z values to use for Field Points (Trimble Points).
