When moving parts in Revit, connected elements are also moved, while this is sometimes helpful, it may also be a nuisance. The Disconnect Elements feature separates elements so that adjustments can easily be made when needed. The Disconnect Elements feature works with both Families and ITM elements.
NOTE: The Disconnect Elements' predefined selection filter can be modified via the Selection Configuration. Please see the link in the Relevant Articles below.
