Hello everyone,
I'm running into an issue on project parameter level. In my case we add shared parameters UserModifiable FALSE. The idea is to have a toggle button that sets the UserModifiable to TRUE so users can manually edit if necessary.
In the plugin we've made a testbutton to test the workflow.
The 'Testknop' currently does 4 transactions:
- Save elementdata for shared parameters
- Save & delete project parameter data (names/types)
- Re-add the projectparameters (using ExternalDefinitionCreationOptions) -> usermodifiable changes True/False by clicking the button)
- Re-adding the data to all elements
The workflow works correctly, although the result is parameters still not being editable.
Debugging:
- I checked the temp sharedparameter file, which had a 1 as usermodifiable
- I'm logging all parameters created, which state UserModifiable as true.
- I retraced all transaction steps and cant find old parameter data in the element or in the document
Reproducible Test Case
- There is a Revit file attached.
- For debugging please run the open-source plugin, here's a link to the current branch:

- Video of steps used is added.
