One of my colleagues rvt schedules is now not showning room names within the schedule with exterior doors.
The schedule was complete at issued for tender since he has been revising plans.
The room space is touching the exterior door. The room is enlcosed. It happens with a variety of door from OH to Curtain Wall. I saw previous posts about this but no solution.
It will not show any room name in the drop down menu on the schedule. It is blank
When I check the door properties all of the ones that are not showing room name have the phasing greyed out. Any ideas.
Cheers

If you use wall opening to model your O/H doors, the room may not be enclosed. Look at your plan view if the rooms are all enclosed. One way to verify that is when the value of the area is being displayed.

The room space tag is showing area and it is referenced by the lease name not unenclosed. This is baffling as to why it would do this now. The doors will not show reference to the space in the schedule. I told him to delete the space and redo.

What parameter are you using for your room name in your schedule?
You can schedule "to room" room name and "from room" room name. Do you have a room outside your building?

The parameter is set to from Room :Name. Most of our doors are picked up in this no worries. It is the odd few that will nto show no matter what. I am going into the schedule property when het gets out of the project and look at the phasing. It might be set to a specific that his doors are not referenced. Is there a reason that the phasing for the doors not showing would be greyed out?

Phasing is what causing some of your rooms not to display. Walls and doors are not on the same phase will cause an undefine room.

Oh and there is no room outside of the building. The model was created by a very junior tech who has since left the company. Now we are cleaning up his model. The curtain wall door will not reference the room in the schedule.

Thank you wwhub and mhans for your input. I checked the room phasing and door this morning and they are both set to new construction.
I managed to correct the other doors references but I still cannot get the door schedule to read the dbl curtain wall doors. This style is the only one that will not show room location.

All of my curtain wall doors work.
The to room side is the wall side you place the door from. If you want the door to swing the other direction thogh, flip the swing after placement.
Try it out ....!

Thank you wwhub I tried that and I am ready to give up. I have no idea what is wrong with his schedule. I have attached a screenshot with this post. If I add the : to room parameter it still doesn't show. I flipped the door and I can't get this curtain wall door to reference the room in the schedule for the life of me.
I am wondering if it could be the curtain wall family he used. When I look at the family all I see is 4" mullions.

Curtain wall doors are seperate entities from curtain walls. And they are not regular doors, they are a replacement for a curtain wall panel.
Without knowing what family he used, we can oly guess. I would replace that door with a stock curtain wall door and see what happens.

BTW,
If someone has a room seperation line just in front of this door, then there may be no room there as well......Turn on room seperation lines.
This curtain wall is set to automatically embed - right?

I ensured the curtain wall was shown as embedded there are no room separation lines. I deleted the room and replaced with new. I have no idea.

Listen, this is simple.... just copy your door scedule and add two columns... to room and from room....
I don't understand why people don't use more working schedules to study what they have in their model....
