Set type parameter for walls doesn't work right

Hi

I’m trying to set a type parameter for walls which identifies the wall type on instance of wall (besides the name). I did some research and got it to work. The problem is that the consecutive numbering starts with the first wall type in the template and not i the model/schedules. The first “typeID” is then 13, which is not how i want it to work

how does I solve this one?

Hi @amyll,
If I understand your issue well, you could use the familytype.Name to collect that prefix you want to feed your parameter. It seems that splitting the familytype name with an underscore and taking the first item would do the trick :

The issue is that if i use Element Type and select WallType I’ll get every wall type in the template. If I select wall i get every wall instance in the model,but I cant figure out sorting the instances to types.
