I am working in another firm's model and noticed a bug regarding Doors embedded in curtain walls and their quantities in schedules.
While auditing the door quantities and comparing the counts to the results in PowerBI, I stumbled across these anomalies.
There can be situations where Curtail Wall Doors embedded in Curtain Wall Grids show up in the schedule but are not physically present in the model. See example model.
Description of the Issue
Schedule sees doors
When selected through the schedule, the doors will show that they have properties, but cannot be physically isolated in the model, they don't physically exist (have no geometry, etc)
There is therefore a discrepancy between the model and the schedule quantities
Reproducing the issue
This is a "found" issue based on the actions of previous unknown users, still, it should not be possible to show quantities for elements that don't physically exist in the model, no matter if the user is incompetent with Revit's curtain wall logic.
The problem seems to arise from the idiotic use of aggressive profiles on curtain walls instead of the proper use of levels, level offsets and wall end locations.
To reproduce the issue, take a curtain wall with doors, then create a profile area that is too small for he doors to exist, like a 1mm height.
After the silly profile is applied, the door not longer exist physically, cannot be found/seen in the model, they still show up in the schedule and can still be selected.
Please refine this error so that elements that are not physically present cannot be counted in the schedule. In this situation, he doors should be destroyed or a serious warning should prevent the situation that provides inaccurate door counts.
See attached test file for concrete issue example.
