I have a model with hundreds of rooms that were created on the wrong phase. So, I first attempted to changed the Phase of a series of rooms but the parameter is read only. Now I am thinking that I could extract the curves of each room, use those or points within to create a new room with the same name, number, and level but on the correct phase. Anyone have any ideas of how to get this done? I have looked at Clockwork’s Room.UnplacedByNameAndNumber, but I want to put it in a certain location. Any suggestions either via node or python?

Peter,

That is certainly a quicker solution than replacing all of the elements.
