Use Model Name to work with multiple design models
Multiple design models:
A common scenario for dRofus Users is that the Project is divided into multiple design models.
dRofus can be used to efficiently manage information from multiple models by storing the data. The dRofus Plug-in uses Model name to ensure that:
The information is up to date in the right model
Operations occur only for the Rooms which belong to the model you are currently working on.
The Model Name feature is available for the entities Rooms, Occurrences and Systems.
Step 1: Provide a Model Name for your model
Open the "Options"
Enter Model name
Step 2: Setup Attribute Configuration
To set Attribute Configuration Admin user access is required
Open the “Attribute Configuration settings” window
Select “Edit” beside the “Room Attribute Configuration”.
4. Select the Revit parameter called “Model name (dRofus)" that is stored as a shared parameter under “Model information”
When this "special" model name parameter is used in the configuration, the Plug-In will enable some features which will ensure that the information is kept coordinated and up to date.
5. Select the dRofus Parameter that the Model name should be written to*
6. Select [Link <--]
7. Set configuration properties: Set this as the only Room Attribute Configuration available for users to select from. This will ensure that all Users write to this particular attribute so that each Room is only located once in each respective model.
You will need to ensure that each model is assigned a unique name. If you us Room Groups you have to make sure that the Model name matches exactly one of the predefined Room Group values within dRofus. In this example, "Model A" is used:
