How do I create a space style similar to BOMA with multiple boundaries?

I want to create a space style similar to BOMA with editable boundaries to use for LEED Daylighting calculations. I figured out how to make a new property set definitions, new space style, etc., but I can't get the boundaries to read as the LEED boundaries. I want the Base area to remain as is, but I want NET to be Daylit, Useable to be Sidelit, and Gross to be Toplit.

I could do the workaround and just use the OOTB BOMA style, but then others editing will have to constantly translate which means what as we edit the drawings. When you look at the display display Properties for the space style, the boundaries and hatches read as net, useable, etc. I can't figure out where to redefine those and when you right click the space and Edit Boundary, I need to be able to display the correct properties, not the BOMA properties. Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Still looking for an answer. In the meantime I am using the boma space and composing it to fit my needs. I customized a tag to read Exception, Side lit, Top lit, etc. in place net, useable, etc.

Hello,

 

Just wondering if you found the answer to this and where you are with your implementation.

 

Thanks and all the best,

No I haven't. It would be useful in space planning.
