# Element Selection

How to select and navigate designed elements between the Element Manager window and the Revit interface.

When navigating the Element Manager window, designed elements may be selected by two different methods. Selecting an element by clicking it in the summary causes it to automatically be selected in the Revit interface.

In a model that contains many designed elements, the Element Manager will automatically display a scroll bar to navigate down the list of elements.

For easier navigation without a scroll bar, the summary table may be enlarged by manually stretching the Element Manager window. When the window is stretched, the lower details area remains the same size and the summary table grows to fit.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.enercalc.com/efr-user-manual/working-with-calculations/using-the-element-manager/element-selection12.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
