Hello all, 

       I'm working on a hospital project that has seven levels and is split up between an interior and an exterior file.  I would like to create a door schedule that includes both the exterior doors and the interior doors, but when I do that, I no longer have the option to sort the doors by level.  Does anyone have any idea how this is happening or if it is fixable?  Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks,MG

If one is linked into the other, you probably need to do something with shared coordinates.  As a workaround, you could add an instance parameter to the door specifying level and type in manually what level it is on.  That should be sortable.  Alternatively, if you gave your rooms numbers such as 1001, 2001 (where the first digit represent the level) you can use that to sort your list without using the levels.  Let me know if you want that explained in more detail.

Your exterior (shell) file should have the same levels as the interior file- you need levels to place doors, and to correctly place windows fixing the sill height above each floor level.

Typically, we do an exterior door schedule from the shell file and an interior door and glazing schedule from the core file. You should make some shared parameters for you door schedules; yes/no parameters that allow you to filter the doors into the correct schedule- and an "exclude from schedule" parameter for misc. openings or specialty doors like operable partitions.

You should have no trouble sorting by level if you've created the levels in both file- just remember to turn on the linked files check box in your schedule.

Dear you!

Could you please explain how to "add an instance parameter"...

Because i think I did it already (by add an instance share parameter to the door) but it was not worked well.

The problem is: I have 3file,  file1 is linked to file2, file2 is link to file3. By above method, i just only make a door schedule in file2; But when i turn to file3, my share parameter totally disappear. It mean I can not sort the doors by level (as in file2). I was required to make a schedule in file3, where is contain some file, suck as, file2, file2', file2", etc.....

Look forward for your help.

Thanks alot!

P/S: I am now using revit 2015.

Why do you have such a convoluted process?  Link in a Link in a file?  Perhaps that was a bad idea without testing first.

Try Linking the 3rd file into the first file rather than just leaving it as a sub-link.
