Hello there,

 

I am having an issue with adding a couple parameters to a Code Room Tag.  I am trying to get the Room name/Square footage/Square Footage Per Person/# of Occupants in room.

 

My problem is getting the family parameters to link to the calculations Revit computes when I input the room occupancy type.  So if I choose "business areas" in my Occupancy Tabulation Schedule it then calculates that to 100 SF Per Person and then calculates how many persons fit in that room.  How do I get my room tag to show this info?  Is it even possible?

 

I already have these parameters in my project, but I can't get these specific parameters into my family.  They appear in schedules, can I not link these project parameters to my family?  Is there a new type of parameter I can create?

Does this make sense?  I have attached the file below.  Thanks,

 

Lorne

I am mildy confused, but I'm thinking your solution is having a shared parameter for the tags. Have you ever used shared parameters?

Yes I've used Shared parameters and that's the problem.  I can't get the loaded shared parameters to link appropriately with the S.F. Per Person and Persons columns in the schedule.

 

I tried to set a label with a parameter in the room tag, but then when loaded it's just question marks.  I assigned it to Rooms Category under parameters too??

 

Does that make more sense?
