    Space naming utility problem

    Using 2011 Space naming utility, but it didn't transfer the information from the arch.rvt after creating spaces. Checked arch.rvt had created room and room tag.

     

    anyone experienced it?

     

    thanks,

    Kevin

    Is your architectural link set to "Room Bounding"?

    I've run into this problem before too, everything seems to be set up correctly, but the Space Naming just won't work. Still haven't figured out a solution.

    We're currently having a similar problem with the Space Naming Utility. Spaces are being placed, no problem. However, when we run the utility "some" of the Spaces are getting the names and numbers pulled correctly.

     

    I have a suspicion that our particular problem is caused the the Architect's varied use of Key Schedules for their rooms. They have two "Room Styles" available to choose from, although only one of them is actually used. The other is populated with 4 of the rooms, but not the rest. I can't see how to get rid of the un-used Room Style, so can't fully test that theory.

    Problem solved.

     

    Went to Phases of our arch.rvt, it was "Complete" of New Construction and changed to "New", room names and numbers transferred.
