Link Family Type Parameters in Instance / Occurrence configuration
dRofus Item Type attributes as well as Revit Family Type Parameters are also available within the Instance / Occurrence type of configurations. This gives you the opportunitet to use the Instance / Occurrence configurations to send data from
dRofus Item Type attributes (such as "Item Name", "Item Number", "BIM ID" etc.) in to Revit Family Instance parameters
Revit Family Type parameters (such as "Type Name", "Type Mark" etc.) in to dRofus Item Occurrence attributes.
In the “Instance / Occurrence” configurations, you will also be able to link dRofus Item parameters with all Type as well as Instance parameters pertaining:
