Hello! I'm relatively new to Revit, and just starting to explore creating new parameters, etc. I've been tasked with updating our title block family to automatically show the logo (a raster image, which could be inserted into a generic annotation family) of the community to which the project pertains. Under Project Information we have shared parameters for the Community Name (and also an associated Community Number, which could be handy in case we need to utilize an integer to make this work instead of a text value). Ideally, based on the Community Name or Number, the correct logo would automatically be visible on the title block.
An obvious alternative is to create a title block for each community, but that would result in managing/maintaining more than a dozen title blocks. Currently I'm working on creating height/width and an on/off visibility parameters for each logo. We then need to select the title block, and check/uncheck all of the visbility boxes to show the one we need. We'd much prefer to have this automated by utilizing the data we're already entering into Project Information.
I'm not sure if it's possible. But the logic (at least in my head), says that if in Project Information I have a parameter called Community Number, and that value is set to 1, then I should be able to have a formula that says "IF Community Number = 1, then turn the visibility parameter of Logo 1 to ON." Again, sounds logical and simple in my head, but I don't know how (or if) Revit can be instructed in such a manner.
I've found numerous posts across the web with somewhat similar scenarios, but what I found was either 5+ years old (hoping new features/functions might have evolved) or didn't quite apply. Any assistance or guidance that can be provided would be GREATLY appreciated!!
