We have a custom built schedule which has the typical "Comments" field. As we aork in our project and add items to that particular row, the "Comments" field gets reset to be blank.
What we are trying to do in effect is to establish a reference point so the we know where we are in relative to the reference point.
Is there a way to make the "Comments" field stick?
is there any way to schedule objects by id number?, maybe through a formula within the schedule that may call the id or the revit API and if that is the case
I've been trying to style my sheet list schedule. ... trying.Is it true that I can't
* style (fontsize, fontweight etc) a 'sorting header'? * style the scheduleborder to only underline the sheetlist-rows * seperate the header styles from sheetlist styles? (I don't want the header to have a border.... while sheetlist-row should be underlined) * format the height of a row
I am trying to add the typical category of "glazing" to a door schedule, but when I add a door with glass into my project, I cannot make this information show up on my schedule. I need typical information such as "!/4" Temp" and "1" Insul" under the category of glazing. I added the "Door: Glass" heading in the schedule, but nothing appears when I add a glass door into the project. I was able to easily do this in AutoCAD Architecture.
I am fairly new to my current employment. Their default for door thickness in the schedule does not suppress zero feet. Every dimension under the thickness column reads 0'-2" instead of just 2" or whatever the thickness may be. I could just make a new parameter, but I was hoping to edit the current thickness parameter.
So I've created a door schedule and added all the parameters I needed. But to get the "room name" to list and be associated with the door tags I had to choose either if the doors were going to a room or from a room, so I chose to, however, some of the doors swing are leaving the room so instead of tagging them with the corridor we want them associated with the room. But I can't edit the column the room names are in. If I click on a cell it gives me a drop menu on the side of what I can choose for that cell and it doesn't have the listed room that I need. It does not let me just type in the cell is there a way to fix this?! The blue highlighted name shows my option of what I can list as the room name or I can leave it blank, it lets me click inside the cell as if I could just put text in it but it actually doesn't show anything that I type.
When splitting a schedule, the title of the schedule shows up above each of the columns created. Is there a way of having it so that when you slit a schedule in multiple columns, the title centeres over the entire view and shows itself only once instead of once over each column?
I want to be able to add rooms through the schedule prior to placing them in the model. I thought I would be able to do that by going to the Modify Schedule/ Quanties Tab and clicking New in the Rows columns but the new option is blanked out and not selectable.
We have tested the difference between wall material take off and material part take off of the same wall.the wall consist of 20mm render, 230mm brick and 30mm tile. Both give the same result.If we join a beam with the wall however, the wall material take off will give different result than the material part take off.The wall finishes in the material part schedule are correct, the ones in the wall matrial take off are off by 53%.
Please see attached file and "unjoin" the beam to the wall to see that both quantities are the same.Interestingly, the total volume of both schedules is almost identical, it is the subdivision that is completely off.
When setting up the material take off manually the material part take off is correct.I suspect I do something wrong. 53% off is not even usable when doing concept.
I know how to edit the appearance of a schedule for a sheet. What I am looking for is how to increase the text size of a schedule while you are editing it.
The window type showed up in the window schedule. But the window dimension didn't.
What's the reason of it? I know you can enter the dimension directly into the schedule. But it would be nice if it comes it automatically. See attached file.
I have certain parameters I'm using in a Door Schedule that should offer a drop-down list of options. When I click in the schedule cell to make a change, I don't get the drop-down. If I select the same door element in the model (such as in a Floor Plan view), I get the drop-down in the Properties window.
One parameter is a Shared Parameter, which is Instance-Based called "Panel Type", and is the "<Family Type...>" kind of parameter. The other troublesome parameter is a Project Parameter from a Schedule Key (Key Name) for a predefined list of Hardware options. Again, the drop-down box doesn't appear in the schedule cell but does appear in a model view on the Properties window.
Strange enough, if I create a new Door Schedule from scratch and add these same two parameters, the schedule behaves properly and offers the drop-down box.
why these drop-down boxes might get "locked out" in the schedule? I don't mind re-creating my Schedule once, but I'd prefer to understand what and why Revit is behaving this way to avoid this in the future.
I am trying to make a schedule and I need to schedule walls, and filter by type. But this option is not available in the view properites/filter options in the schedule.
Is it possible to make this happen without creating an additional parameter for filtering? Which would also open up the potential for omissions in the schedule.
I have a Multi-Category Schedule and using certain fields it shows me Furniture, Toilet Assoc., Plumbing Fixturers, etc. All I want the Schedule to show is Furniture and Furniture Systems together in one schedule. When going to the Filter I choose Category>Equals>Furniture Systems and Category>Equals>Furniture. Assuming that the schdule would filter out everything else and only show items from the Furniture Systems Category and the Furniture Category. Instead it shows me nothing, eveything disappears. Its as if it is looking for a Catgory that is botn Furnitue Sysems and Furiture as one. I can do each Category individualy and its fine but I can't Filter by both? How can I get this scheudle to just show me Furniture and Funiture Systems? is their an update to correct a bug in the software that will fix this?
