Hello,
I'm trying to find a way to solve two problems, both probably have the same solution. I need to add a code field to all elements, in order to input a uniformat code. And, I need a "level" field to input what floor the element belongs to. In the end the objective is to be able to group elements consistently by level and uniformat codes.
Unfortunately, the built-in level field that Revit 2014 has doesn't always work. For example on walls the level field stores no information. So if I have a multi-category schedule, my walls won't have any level information.
So, the solution I've found is to use project parameters. I created a Uniformat Code parameter, and a FloorLevel parameter. Then I simply mass select, filter, and assign the necessary properties. It seems to work, so far.
Is this the best way to solve this problem, or is there a less complicated/more effective solution for adding uniformat and level information to a model?
