Right now I have 3 phases: existing, demolition and new construction. But later I have to show the existing room tag on the demolition plan. Because the room tag is phase-specific, the only way I can figure out is merging the existing phase and demolition phase. However, after I did combination, the phase filter doesn't work well. I must use “show all” instead of “show previous and demo” to see the existing & demolition plan…it doesn’t make any sense.
Anybody knows the problem?
Thanks!

Room tags are view specific. You can copy them from one view to another. You have to watch out though as sometimes a room exists in one phase but not the other. Remember, Revit is a database and the room tags "report" the properties of the room not define the room.
There is a discussion of this issue on AUGI if you go over there and do a search.

Revit will not allow you to show previous phase tags in a later phase.
Workaround:
Duplicate your existing plan and turn off everything except the room tags. Then on a sheet overlay this plan over your demolition plan (it will snap into place). This will retain all the automation of these tags and still essentially show all the information you need. For this room tag view also set the view title to none.
HTH.

You can also just leave the existing rooms as "new construction" in the plan, and just filter them out of your new construction room schedule. I just wrote "existing" in the comments parameter of the rooms that are supposed to be existing rooms and filtered by: comments - does not equal - existing. I don't see too many drawbacks to this.

Other people in the process rely on rooms placed correctly for energy analysis, HVAC zoning, quantity take-offs etc. etc. If BIM is to be achived, then data centric solutions need to be employed not CAD centric solutions.

would be nice if this would get addressed. i dislike having to do a work around for this each time we do renovation project. it doesn't seem like it would be all that difficult, hey but i not a programmer.
