In a Previous post, I wrote about mapping family parameters to schedules using shared parameters.
Revit 2011 subscription extension tools has a new tool which will help to achieve that process, the tool creates new
rfa files after adding the shared parameters you previously create to use with your projects
So for Example, I will use the same example in my previous post, let say that I want to have custom Hot Water Flow parameter in my
WSHP schedule and the heat pump folder has about 20 families
I will start by creating the shared parameter, then I will use the shared parameter conversion new tool and I will use the heat pump folder as my source folder, then I will create another destination folder for heat pumps and of course I will use the same text file of the created shared parameter , the tool will create new families after adding the shared parameters in my text file, then I will open the new
rfa files and use the formula to map the custom shared parameter to the existing family parameter, when loading any of the new families to my projects I will find the shared parameter available to add to my
WSHP schedule
Very interesting
