@The BIM Coordinator This is a hard question to word, but is there a way to create a filter that uses a parameter or a "variable" as the argument value to compare? For example, one issue I have is showing the sanitary piping for the level below without showing the sanitary piping above (disregard view range as a solution). I can make a filter that hides the pipes above since they are not associated with the floor plan being shown, but I cannot assign it to my View Template because it will only work for a certain level. Could you create a custom parameter name Associated Level and fill it in for the pipes and create a rule that selects the unwanted pipes with something like: if Level (Built-in parameter) not = Associated Level then visibility will be off? If not, do you know of a way to filter certain elements associated with a view template without unchecking the filter for the view template? My coworkers are not very good with filters so I am trying to control as much through view templates as possible. Thanks
Hi, BIM Coordinator, I am following your tutorial, quite good indeed, however I was wondering about those Nodes ( Element Types and All Elements of Type) Could you please elaborate more, I mean, are those nodes belongs a particular Package? or you have re-named them from the Revit API, which ones are refer to?
