Sort list in Excel

Lists-Logic

Hi!

So I’ve been trying to export data from revit to excel. but I’m having trouble filtering my list and getting a correct output in excel. So far I,ve created two lists (see the image below). List 1 consists of a total of 19 sublists. 12 sublists of walls with 33 items each, 2 sublists of floors with 28 items each, 1 roof sublist with 26 items and 4 foundation sublists with 25 items each. List 2 represents the parameter names, consisting of 33 names.

I would like to sort list 1 based on the input of list 2 see below. Every parameter value should be underneath the right parameter name. See the red boxes in the picture.

m2

  • m2
  • m2
  • m2
  • m2
  • m2
  • m2
  • m2
    …

Absorptance
- 0.1
- 0.1
- 0.1
- 0.1
- 0.1
- 0.1
- 0.1
…

I,ve tried a couple of things but nothing worked. When I export the file now the image below is the result. This is without combining the lists.

Thanks in advance!

you should make the list of parameter exactly as the list 1, do the following :

  • Flatten then Transpose List 2
  • use List.Cycle on it with Level of 2
  • the value for List.Cycle should be taken from List.Count from list 1 also with level 2

you should have now List 2 with same count of List 1
