• I am using the latest pyRevit Version

🐞 Describe the bug

The 'Match' does not work for me in the latest WIP (pyRevit_CLI_5.0.0.24325_admin_signed) version in 2025 Revit
I'm running 2025 Revit on Windows 10. Before installing I uninstalled all verisons of pyRevit and previously went though my Regedit to remove references to pyRevit.

The feature open and the drop downs work, but the basic Match properties does not do anything. I've opened the drop downs and toggle the selections but there is no change. I get no error messages, it just does not copy and paste the Graphic Overrides (Projection Lines, Surface Patterns, Surface Transparency, Cut Lines, Cut Patterns).

♻️ To Reproduce

No response

⏲️ Expected behavior

Clicking 'Match' should allow selection of any item to copy all Graphic Overrides (Projection Lines, Surface Patterns, Surface Transparency, Cut Lines, Cut Patterns), then selecting a second item should paste those graphic overrides to that view of the selected item

🖥️ Hardware and Software Setup (please complete the following information)

Windows 10 PC
2025 Revit latest version.

Did you see the instructions under the "Error/Debug" message when you filed the issue? It asks you to CTRL+click on the command button and report the debug messages here, that way we can better analyze the problem.

Also, the "to reproduce" section is helpful to us to understend exactly the actions you performed step by step (I know that it feels like replicating the description, and in this case is trivial, but it could help spot the conditions where tha unexpected behavior raises).

Finally: does this happen with any file, or did you try only with one model?

Andrea, To answer your questions: Did you see the instructions under the "Error/Debug" message when you filed the issue? No, I didn’t see this It asks you to CTRL+click on the command button and report the debug messages here, that way we can better analyze the problem. I will try to find this location to report debug messages. Also, the "to reproduce" section is helpful to us to understand exactly the actions you performed step by step (I know that it feels like replicating the description, and in this case is trivial, but it could help spot the conditions where tha unexpected behavior raises). I’m running Windows 10, 2025 Revit and the WIP 5.** version of pyRevit. I simply click on the ‘Match’ button and then do the select item to collect the graphic overrides, and then paste on another item to set those same graphic overrides. Nothing happens. Previously the 2024 version of pyRevit did this with no issues when running 2024 Revit. Finally: does this happen with any file, or did you try only with one model? This happens with all 2025 Revit .rvt files. PS; I am slow to learn the GitHub interface for communicating properly in the pyRevitlabs/pyRevit WIP 5.** forum(?) Each time I login things appear to be arrange differently. Is there a link that you can share? Is there any tutorial to explains how to properly navigate and post issues? This a new issue I’d like to post for consideration. I will try to find the link to add this as a new issue. Windows 10, running 2025 Revit and the WIP 5.** version of pyRevit. Under the ‘Match’ menu, I just tried "Match Paint" selecting a Catch Basin family .rfa and attempting to paste to an identical Catch Basin .rfa family. I wanted the copy and paste the magenta line color graphic override, to a catch basin with no graphic overrides.
