Revit :: Cost Estimating In Schedules - How To Combine Categories
Jul 27, 2012I created schedules inc. cost for Light fixtures, Lighting control etc. For each of the 3 schedules I was able to add the cost (based on the cost I put into the family). The problems I'm having are:
if i show the cost in the schedule view, it will show up on the sheet set. i just want to use if for cost estimating, but not show on the plans (i don't want to manually hide/un-hide all the time when i want to see the cost) - i could duplicate that schedule and hide the cos columns on the one i put on the sheet. but that seems archaic and doubles the number of schedules i don't see a way to combine the cost. Right now I only have 3 schedules and can add those up in my head, but like to automatically do that for many schedules. i know i could export to Excel.. but that takes away the whole "Revise instantly" idea and I want to be able to see right away what cost changes when I add or delete items.
Revit :: Filtering Multi-Category Schedule?
Aug 21, 2013I 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?

Feb 15, 2012I am trying to find a way to control the leader line of a multi-category tag such that the second line of the leader is horizontal - my users are spending too much time to make our leaders look better than "sloppy".
I do have a Keynote family that can accomplish this but I cannot find the same for the multi-category tag. And I cannot find a way to make my Keynote tag a multi-category tag.
Revit :: Include Mass In Multi-Category Schedule?
Aug 16, 2013I have created a schedule based off some OFCI ( Owner Furnished Contractor Installed) Items. Some of these items cannot be found online or in the revit library (such as a spectrophotometer). So I created a mass and identified type marks for these items. However, I cannot seem to get the mass items to show on the multi-category schedule. Is there a way to do this or another way to create a schedule that includes mass and equipment?

Revit :: Appearance Of Multi-Category Schedule In Layout View
Dec 19, 2011I would like to dedact some parts of the Multi-Category Schedule (to only show the measurements of units of quantities valid for the given materials)
This seems achievable in the working view mode, but when I place the schedule in a layout, the dedaction is no longer visible.
If this setting cannot be transfered to the Layout view, is there a similar method that can be used to dedact some parts of the schedule?

Revit :: How To Set Row Height In Schedules
Jul 8, 2013Fiddling around with schedules, I found a workaround to set the row height. Simply:
1 - Add a field which doesnt' contain any data to the schedule;
2 - In the schedule view, select the field's column and in the appearance tab, define a font size to whatever size of rows you would like.
3 - When you now add the schedule to a sheet, you can see that the height of each row is bigger
4 - If you selected to show gridlines, you can define the newly added column in the schedule view to have no borders
And that's my workaround. It's way better than adding spaces and adjusting widths.

View 1 Replies View RelatedRevit :: Filtering Schedules By Level?
Mar 15, 2011I have an issue where filtering my framing member schedules per Level by, for example, Level equals LEVEL 3 causes the entire schedule to be filtered to empty. We clearly have members constrained to and occuring on LEVEL 3.
The same happens when filtering for, say, at or above LEVEL 3, but interestingly not at or below LEVEL 3, in which case nothing happens -- that is, it still displays members clearly occuring only on and constrained to Reference LEVEL 5.
AutoCad :: Combine Several Separate Drawings Into One Multi-tab Drawing?
Nov 30, 2012I have 10 separate drawing files that I want to combine into one drawing and I want each drawing to be on a separate layout.I want to end up with one drawing with 10 layout tabs each containing the graphics from one drawing.Each drawing has one layout with the graphics on it.No fancy paper space / model space stuff.No viewport scaling.
I thought this could be done via Design Center but I've never used that.
Revit :: Paint Tool Giving Inaccurate SF On Schedules
May 22, 2013I am working on a project doing cost estimating and product specification for interiors. First project ever using Revit!
In my "Wall Finish Schedule" I need to show the finish material, the Area (SF) and cost. For tile on the wall I have created basic walls which works great. For my painted walls I used the split face tool and applied the material with the paint tool. Double checking the SF calculations for the applied paint - they are incorrect and seem to calculate the whole wall instead of the split area with material applied.
What is the best solution to properly apply wall materials so they schedule properly?
Revit :: Generic Models Schedules To Get Length Of Object
Jul 11, 2013I am using Revit 2013 and I am wondering if there is any easy way of getting my generic model schedules to get the length of the object without having to manually type it in?!
I have attached 2 images to explain what I am talking about. I have created my own countertops and decided for scheduling purposes it would work best to have them as generic models. As you can see from the "Counter Top Properties" image that it has the length of my countertop in the program, but as the "Counter top Schedule" Images shows I can not choose "Length" as an available field. I had to create a parameter for the length ("Length of Unit"), which is just a dimension parameter, and I have to type in manually what the length is. Is there a way to get my schedule to get that length dimension automatically without having to manually type it in!?

View 4 Replies View RelatedRevit :: Setting Up Door Families / Schedules In Typical Project
Sep 24, 2013This is linked to me previous door query. We are working in a bit of a vacuum here and I am really interested to see how people set up their door families / types / instances for scheduling - as we are struggling to identify a 'best practice' approach.
At present we have set up a host family for the doorset that contains the opening and framing, with a nested doof leaf family in which is nested a door furniture family (and possibly vision panel face hosted family as well). It seems quite complicated, and in the current setup all the door / frame / leaf parameters are established in the door Type, and we have no Instance parameters other than Mark, level etc.
We are trying to set up a system where we will have Types for:
Main Door Assembly Type (dictates the frame type, overall fire and acoustic resistances)
Door Leaf Type (Thickness dictated by the fire resitance set in the host)
Door Furniture type (Door furniture set on the door leaf type)
We intend to have 'Door Furniture' nested in the 'Door Leaf' Nested in the overall 'Door Assembly'
There is another potential set of Types for the Door Frame / Architrave - which for the moment we have only as Profiles with their own parameters.
It does seem to be getting very complication, with lots of Types and I'm not sure whether that approach is worth the time in setting it up.
I was chatting to someone who says they deal with most of the parameters as instances within a handful of Door Types (1 Type for each main elevation appearance for a door, so 1 type may have instances of FD30, FD60, FD00, Veneer Finish, Laminated Finish etc.) This seems far simpler than our approach, but I'm not sure on the trade offs in flexibility.
I was hoping to set up a door family set that we could use from project to project that has quite a bit of flexibility. How do you arrange your doors / schedules in a typical project ?
Revit :: Family Category To Create Extrusion
Jul 25, 2013Is there a Family Category that allows me to create an Extrusion that will then work with the “Attach Top/Base” tool?
For example, instead of using a structural column, I would instead like to use a Model In-Place Extrusion, then be able to attach these columns to my roof.
I’m noticing you don’t get the option to “Attach Top/Base” when you use a Model In-Place Extrusion.

View 2 Replies View RelatedRevit :: How To Change The Category Of The Element To Roof
Aug 22, 2011Problem: in order to get Revit Mep to calculate roofs in the heatload calculation I the floor I used need to be a roof.
Revit MEP does not calculate any roof area since in my model I used floors to finish a level. Which i architurally correct. But partially it's also a roof. Revit Mep does not use the floor as a roof. So what i want to do is to redefine a complex floor with lots of curved sides etc. into a roof.
The question is: is it possible to just tell revit somehow to change the categorie of the element to roof? or do I have to redraw the whole floor as a flat roof?
Revit :: Add Parameters To Family Category - View Title
Jan 17, 2012I'm trying to create a custom view title family for the office (see attached). We'd like to have a label for Drawing Type (ie. "Building Plan" in the attached image) in the view title which would appear in the properties tab under identity data, next to the standard Title on Sheet, View Name, etc.
In the project, I am able to create a project parameter which appears as desired in the properties tab, but am unable to add the parameter inside the family when creating it. It seems impossible to add this parameter to the standard view title family template (alongside Detail Number, Sheet Number, etc.).
I tried it using a Generic Annotation family, but in the project, Revit does not recognize that family as a view category family and therefore you cannot choose this family when setting your view type.

AutoCAD Architecture :: Schedules With Percentages

AutoCAD Architecture :: Room Tags And Schedules
Nov 20, 2013I'm attempting to create a room schedule for my floor plan that shows Room Number, Room Name, Area, and Ceiling Height. First off, I would like to tag the rooms with just the Room Number, and not both the number and name - can that be done? Second, I'm able to schedule the Room Numbers and Names correctly, but the Area and Ceiling Height columns are filled with ? marks.
This is strange because I can clearly see the space area in the properties tab when I click on each space. *In the attached screenshot, note how both the base area and space height are visible in the properties tab when I have a space selected.
AutoCAD Architecture :: Sizes In Door Schedules?
Feb 12, 2013i have created a door schedule and it seems to be missing the most important part, the sizes! When I go into Style Manager and click on the door shcedule and try to add columns size does NOT come up as a choice. I have added size to the property sets of the doors. I have tried everything I can remember from older versions of Autocad and it just won't put in this bit of information.
