Present values in a title block from schedules

[giacco]

Hi,

From a series of schedules I have obtained some totals and other values. Is it possible to use these values, link them and present them in a title block?

What I need is advice on where to look for information, if anyone has had a situation, is it possible to do it with parameters or do I need to do it with dynamo?

Thank you.

If without addin or dynamo,

you can present it on sheet by hiding title and put another schedule up there to present it.

I need to replicate the format of an Excel sheet of a rebar Schedule summary, I can obtain all the necessary information from rebar Schedule.

What I need to understand is how to relate any information from any Schedule to a parameter that can be displayed in a title block. (or where you recommend I look for more information about it).

This way I can generate a pdf file directly from Revit without having to export or rewrite the data in Excel.

The idea is that the title block reflects the format of the excel sheet.

Regards.

Hi @giacco,

Is there a Reason you can't place the schedules themself on the sheet?

Even with dynamo or API you have a variable amount of rows (correct?) so only way to do that with automation would be create textnotes and lines on the sheet itself, otherwise you need a lot of parameters in a titleblock.

You can hide the sorting cons, title, and headers.

So that it looks like only a left Title (create by a calculated parameter) and a total value.

The only problem is you may create a single schedule for each total value, and you'll have a lot of trash schedules.

*Maybe Revit should let schedule and sheets can group by type Name, just like other views.

There is a RVT with several wall and a sheet with total value (wall area) in it.

In the end I created a title block with a number of parameters where they are automatically completed through Dynamo

Thank you very much and greetings, have a good day.
