I am throughly confused here. I have placed the skylight family (roof-based window family) from the Imperial Library into my project. It shows up in my schedule as I want it excpet that there is no room to which I can associate it with. The room is tagged and labeled and all of the other windows in this bathroom have associated with the room, but they are all wall based.
There is a dropped, sloping ceiling in the room. Could that be causing the room to not associate with the roof and therefore not associate with window?
Also I did modify th eheight of the room so that the window would be completed within the boundary of the room vertically
Anyone know how to get this to associate?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, Old thread, old problem. Is there really no way of associating a roof light (i.e. non wall-hosted window) to a room? Seems daft, as a lot of my extensions include some sort of roof light. One of the benefits of the scheduling ( or at least my hope was), was to take advantage of its 'ease' of creating daylight and ventilation calculations on the go.... Any suggestions? Lars P.S - maybe there should be a threat created for purely identifying those nuisance that are not possible, as for someone like myself, I seem to spend days(literally) sometimes trying to see what I am doing wrong, to finally find out that the limitation is not me, but the software. While I'm at it, I was hoping to create a window schedule, where the window id is = to the window tag - the window id is made up of a 'W' then the floor level, and finally the Mark, e.g. W1-12. So far through seaching, I seem to have hit another wall, ie, Revit does not allow the joining of various fields and text...any suggestions on this one?
