| Note that the Create New option will only create a new dRofus Item. In order to update the quantity of Items in Rooms in dRofus, you will need to either add it explicitly to the Rooms' Items lists within dRofus or use Update dRofus within the Model Equipment dialog in archiCAD (Refer to: Reporting of Items in Multiple Zones Selected Zones or by ArchiCAD Level or by ArchiCAD Model). |
Link ArchiCAD Objects and dRofus Items Based on a Key
...
Attribute
If you have established Objects in ArchiCAD and items in the items overview in dRofus as well as Items in dRofus, you can link them together based on key parameters, with values that are apparent in both places. Key parameters can be any parameter set on the items in dRofus and any parameter on the object in ArchiCAD.To link items to the objects you'll need to set the "Items <-> Object configuration" in the Add-On so a correct parameter is used as a keyvalues within the Key attribute used for comparing. For each Object <-> Item link, this value will need to be apparent in both ArchiCAD Object as well as dRofus Item. The Key attribute used for comparing can be any chosen parameter within the ArchiCAD Object and dRofus Item.
To link ArchiCAD Objects to dRofus Items, within the Addon, you will need to setup the Object <-> Item Configuration with your chosen dRofus attribute and ArchiCAD parameter as the Key attribute used for comparing. In the example below we have used the parameter "BIM ID" in dRofus as a placeholder for a Library Part name of objects.
Then the key parameter in the configuration should be defined as it is shown below:
To change the configuration to match your key parameters you need super user access to dRofus' BIM ID and ArchiCAD's Library Part Name as the Key attribute used for comparing:
To create new, delete existing or edit an existing Object <-> Item Configuration, you will need a BIM Administration access within dRofus. See how you can change the configuration in ArchiCAD Object to Item Configuration.
