Multi-lingual family parameters

Multi-lingual family parameters

It's so hard and long to build a corporate family library, and it is not possible to duplicate or triplicate all that work in two or three different languages, specially when using shared parameters or shared families, but many customers want to recieve their projects with the family and project parameters in their own language.

 

It would be great if all the custom parameters could have a double or triple name, sensitive to Revit's active language so that, if the customer opens the project in Revit-French or Revit-German, you would see french or german parameters.

 

The thing is to keep all the main work as the system parameters, to keep all actual custom families, and to be able to ADD more languages to them, from now on, without dulpicating anything.

 

don't you agree?

Could not agree more, and was about to post this as an idea, before I found yours.

So just adding my original post here in the comments section:




We have customers in many different countries and have huge dilemmas when making new families and parameters.

What language should the parameters be …

Making language based duplicates for all families and templates is huge maintenance job

 

All this could be solved by letting the parameters support multiple languages.

Revit bultin paramteres

Already have this option and will change language based on what language Revit is.

 

When creating new parameter add an option menu to define Language overrides for the parameter name.

If nothing is defined the original name is used

Suggestion to UI:

Same for Family, project and shared parameters.

Shared parameters fil could then add a collum for each defined language

Parameter keeps its original GUID, but parameter name changed based on Revit language.
