    Space Naming Utility Not Renaming All Spaces

    I ran the Space Naming Utility and discovered that some spaces are not changing, even though there is a room in the same location.  Any suggestions as to possible reasons why this is happening?

    I've not seen this happen while the Space still shows that it's associated with a Room. Is this a Worksharing Project? If so, is it possible that the elements were uneditable?

    Have you compared the Room properties with the Space properties (Height, Phase, etcetera)? (Especially since this is only occurring with some of the spaces.)

    Yeah I believe it was a phase issue.  It's too bad that you can't cross phase lines with the space naming, because some rooms are being done in one phase, some in the next.  But the rooms are only marked in the phase they are made, not in later phases.
