Sheet parameters

Technical name: tavole_parametri

Sheets › Export

Reads

Lists the parameter names of sheets, views and Project Information, to use as columns or in file names.

What it does

Returns the names of the parameters available for the export, in two alphabetical lists:

  • for sheets: the parameters of the sheets and of Project Information;
  • for views: the parameters of the views and of Project Information.

These are the names to use for the extra columns of the list and for the {param:Name} fields in file naming patterns and in the export folder, like the "Parameter…" choice and the extra columns of the "Export" window (Esporta tavole).

How it works

  1. Your AI calls the tool, with no parameters.
  2. BIMit reads in Revit the parameters of the first 30 sheets and the first 30 exportable views, and those of Project Information.
  3. Your AI receives the two lists and uses them, for example, to write a naming pattern with a project parameter.

Example requests

  • "Which sheet parameters can I use in the file name?"
  • "Do the sheets have a Drawing Code parameter?"
  • "Which Project Information parameters can I put in the folder path?"

What changes and how to undo

Nothing: the tool only reads and changes neither the model nor any file.

Limits

  • Works at the AI level "Read".
  • The names come from the first 30 sheets and views: a parameter found only on later sheets or views may not appear.

Parameters

No parameters.
