Hi, I am trying to add a parameter ( Instance Property) to a Window-Family that assigns the Room-Name to each window. Each Window has an Instance-Parameter ( Bereich ) where I need to assign Room-Names. So far I have been successful in isolating Room-Name and set of windows each room has but I co…

@hassan.orion Use FamilyInstance.Room: [image] Family instance.room doesn't find room Packages Hello to all, I don’t understand why the Family instance.room node doesn’t read me the rooms in which the windows are inserted. The same script within another project works fin…

Thanks, but FamilyInstance.Room Node is returning same problem as discussed in the Post. Its returning Null. I tried adjusting CalculationPoint, checked Room Bounding. Seems like the node has problem. Anyother work around by Lists ?

@hassan.orion Calculation Point should solve it, but when it works for one window, it wont for the other, duplicate types would be a solution

here is an example. I have 5, same family, same type windows, placed in 3 different rooms. Do you mean I have to open edit family for each window even though they are exactly the same ? I checked in Dynamo, even the window I updated CalculationPoint, even that window does even have any associated R…

Are your rooms and your windows in the same model?

Yes, the its just one model, no IFCs or links. Furthermore, I just noticed that the Node is working for doors, but not for windows [Screenshot 2022-03-07 154050] [image]

Can you do a save as, delete everything but two rooms and their associated windows, and post that RVT? I’ll have a look during my afternoon nap… errr meetings. :wink:

So I tried with 2 more windows from different projects. Seems like windows recognizes room only when there are flipped. I tried flipping RoomCalculationPoint as well, flipping that does NOT* make any difference. [image] [image]

Here comes a Revit knowledge dump, followed by what I hope will be a solution. Family Instances have three properties which allow reporting of rooms: .Room[phase], .ToRoom[Phase], and FromRoom[phase]. The [phase] portion is required as there can be different rooms in the same spot in different phas…
