Rooms don't recognise walls contained in design option of linked file
Rooms don't recognise walls contained in design option of linked file
Hi all,
I have been testing a new workflow with rooms and design options:
I have a dedicated Revit file containing only rooms and I would like them to been able to recognize the walls contained in different design options of a linked Revit file.
I have been facing an issue though: Rooms are not recognizing the geometries contained in a design option.
Is there any work around I can use or something I am missing to solve this?

Many thanks in advance!
If the room bounding elements are in design options then you need to have different rooms for different design options.
I have already set up two design options with different rooms but they are only able to recognise the geometries of the primary design option of the linked file and not the geometries contained in other options of the same linked file.

Is there any workaround to this?
Add room separation lines for each design options instead of relying on walls from linked file.
I guess instead of using design options, if phasing is not needed for any other purpose (as in my case), it could be used to store different options and then use phase mapping in the rooms file to 'assign' rooms to each geometry layout for each phase..this should work in theory, right?
Yes this could work but I would need to trace the boundary every time you have a change in every option. I guess Dynamo could help the tracing process but you would still need to run the script each time

That's not what I meant. A Schedule in the Parent Project CAN pickup walls in Link Design Options. You just need to override and set the Link Design Option to report as shown in my Screenshot. The Phase Mapping must be correct though. Phase Mapping is done in the Link Properties.
Isn't that what we're talking about here? How to report Link Design Option elements in a Parent Project Schedule?
My issue is related to rooms not recognising geometries in a linked file if such geometries are stored in a design option that is not the primary, this isn't related to scheduling
