Hi,

 

How is possible to get in Title block a label which I would name Option, which would get the option from Option set, or get another label with ,Phasing (Existing, New construction etc).

 

Thanks.

Hi,

 

Something like this?

 

1. Add shared project text parameter to project sheets category

2. Add a label to the titleblock family with the same shared parameter in 1

3. Write addin to get the Phase name of the view(s) on the sheet and set the sheets parameter used in 1 to the phase name(s).

4. If multiple phases are used combine names or use a default text like "Multiple Phases"

5. For designoptions use same workflow as for phases, but to retrieve used designoptions iterate all visible elements in the view(s) of the sheet and inspect the DesignOption value (ElementDesignOptionFilter Class )

 

6. Run addin (each time) before printing....

As of now, not possible with the built-in parameter.  You will have to write a script with PyRevit and requires coding.

You can put this on their idea forum and get more votes on this so Autodesk will incorporate this in the future.
