Concatenate existing Parameters to a New Parameter

Hello Everyone,

 

Has anyone have updates on how to concatenate existing parameters in the current revit model to a new parameter separated by "." (eg. 001.SG2.AAV.01.DC.01). Around 6 parameters need to combine.

Any revit add-ins or plugins in mind that can share will be helpful. Need it badly.

 

 

Thank you very much in advance!

Recently asked here. 

Dynamo would be the way to do it I think.

Are you looking to use it in a Tag or a Schedule?

are all the parameters from he same category of elements?

 

  • in a schedule you can use the Combine Parameters tool
  • in a tag, select the Label tool and add the needed parameters sequentially. You can put a Prefix or suffix to separate them as needed.

Both methods suggested by @hmunsell will display the result in a tag or schedule but don't actually create an extra combined parameter.

If you want to combine the data in a parameter as requested by @neilKK64C  then Dynamo would be the way to do it.

@hmunsell i am doing a parameter not a tag or schedule. I tried to look for other solution and not go first with Dynamo but it seems that, it is the only option.
Thanks @iainsavage
