Associate Global Parameters to Floor Height Offset from Level

Associate Global Parameters to Floor Height Offset from Level

Please enable us to directly associate Global Parameters to the Floor category 'Height Offset from Level' built-in property.  This can be done for the similar Ceilings category (since Revit v2016 R2).  This would allow us to change the floor height offset for multiple floors with only one number change - invaluable for changing floor set-downs on large project (eg. if a balcony floor set-down changes from 50mm to 75mm, for every balcony on a project).  Currently we have to select every floor slab individually.

It's also strongly desired to add Global Parameter capabilities to remaining Revit items that have not been tested or activated yet. In most cases, this is easily done by Autodesk, but the testing has not yet been performed. This should be a priority as GPs are very useful!

@  eblackburnKAU5W  - yes we'd like all Revit items to be available, but unfortunately Autodesk has to recode and check each and every one individually - so they will not be doing them all, which is why we need to vote for individual ones, in the hope that they address the most important items.  They don't know which are the most useful until we tell them.

Long awaited option and unfortunatly still waiting.

Global parameters is a great way to parametrize our models, it's a sad limitation that Floors are not included in the scope. I'd love to parametrically set an offset to floors and then control offsets for supporting structural framing, structural columns and the like.
