Change name of Aria plan category

[hmh]

Hi.

I am working with a model I got from someone else so some of the setup in the template is different from what I am used to. 

I can't figure out how the area plans are set up. I can't change the name of the area plan categories. I am also unable to figure out how I can move plans from one category to another. Any ideas?

You can create new Area Schemes. Is that what you want to do?

I can, but I can only choose from the categories that are allready in the model. I can't figure out how to make new categories, rename them or assign an existing plan to another category.

In this model there are multiple buildings. Each building has level lines assigned to a category. I need to be able to make new categories or assign level lines or plans to them.

You can rename the two Area Schemes.

I can, but then the category and the name of the schedule don't match - which will be very confusing when I have made area chedules for all 6 buildings in the model. I also can't move plans/level lines between categories and thereby betweeen schedules.

You can't change the Ref. Level of an existing Area Plan.  You can create another Area Plan for the same Level by unchecking this:

Ok thanks, then I know that. Ill just make new plans.

How about renaming the category?

The Area plans are for B reitur and the Area schedule is for D reitur. They are from different Area schemes and has nothing to do with one another.  

If you want Area plans for D reitur then create New Area Plans and choose D reitur scheme.  Same for schedule, create a new schedule and choose B reitur.

Yes, they are the same - I just renamed the Scedule to "D reitur" because that is the correct name. Is does indeed contain the areas from the plans in the category " B reitur". That is why I want to rename the category so the schedule matches the catagory.
