SetParameter of Detail item in Assembly View

Revit

Hi all,

Im currently facing some issues and im unsure if i can solve these through dynamo.

For this project im working on my BIM manager suggested i dont model reinforcement nets but instead i model a Filled region (Detail Item) in the assembly views. We added a shared parameter to the Detail Item: “AssemblyName” and the idea is to set that parameter as the assembly name. This way i can calculate the totals with the actually modelled rebar, create schedules for billing etc etc.

My issue is that i cant seem to find a way to link the view that the filed region is in to an assembly. I think this is the best way to describe it if not ill happily provide more info

Look at the workset the filled region is on, or for a way to pull the ‘owner view’. If that view is an assembly view, you should be able to work out the rest.

Pulled the OwnerView (from Clockwork) and used all elements in those views (also Clockwork) to match the region to an assembly. Learned 2 new custom nodes today! thanks Jacob.

Now just gotta make this dummy proof and filter out filled regions that arent in assembly views or views containing an assembly
