Parameter Transfer 

To see this feature in action check out the video below!

About this feature:

The Parameter Transfer feature, when used inside of a schedule, will open a dialog that allows the user to transfer shared parameters that exist in families in the schedule to other families in the schedule.

Users must be inside of a Revit schedule to activate the command. The Parameters being transferred must be in the Shared Parameter file being used in the project.

Prerequisite

A shared parameter file must already be loading in the project that contains the shared parameters being transferred.

Workflow

  1. Go to the Manage project tab by selecting on Manage project.
  2. In a Schedule view start the tool from Naviate AC ribbon.
  3. Checkboxes in Add column control which parameters will be added to families.
  4. Checkboxes in Inst column control which parameters will be Instance. When unchecked, parameters will be added as Type.
  5. The check boxes in the Mod column will determine which families the parameters are transferred to.
  6. The Save Families? check box allows the user to automatically save the families when complete. With Save Families? selected, the user has the choice to Save to desktop or Save over original location.
  7. Click Accept to load the families into the project. 

Notes and Tips:

Upon Accepting Parameter Transfer settings, you will be required to overwrite the existing families in the project.
