Hello All, 

I'm trying to find a quick automated way to schedule windows and doors individually in a ledgend.  My the first way I tried this is to create schedules for each window that are filtered using the height and width of the door/window.  This is a major pain and I think in the long run it would lead to mistakes in my documentation.

I was wondering if you guys can think of a way to create a Tag that I can select x window/door in a ledgend and it would populate a list of all families with Parameters, lets say Location and Mark, in the project.

So essentially what I'm wondering is can I create a tag that displays multiple instances of 1 type of family.  I can't think of a way, but maybe one of your brilliant people has a trick up their sleave.

Cheers!

Ok so I got rid of the height x width parameter filter and replaced it with a Type Mark filter, much better than before.  However it's still not a one click operation which is what I'm after.

You can't schedule doors in a legend. 

You would not want to "filtered using the height and width of the door/window" but maybe in a schedule you would sort by one or both of these parameters.

A Tag only reads parameters.  It does not perform actions.
