Families have a set of standard parameters: category, comments, mark, keynote, type mark and workset. Parameters can be type or instance. To create more parameters use P.
Select one or more object that belongs to a family or a block to edit its parameters using the Panel. Use Q to edit in a table format.
In Revit, parameters must be defined as either project or system parameters to
To add additional custom parameters to families use P on the panel.
In Revit, parameters are filled based on their type: numerical parameters require numbers, and similar rules apply to other types. Incorrect types will not be filled, and no warning is given. Always verify your data after importing.
Parameters can be either type or instance parameters. Instance parameters are unique to each instance, while type parameters are shared among all instances.
The Rhino document units will be used to create the values in Revit.
You can import parameters from a shared parameters text file. Press import to select the .txt file and select the parameter to import.
To visualize and edit all families and parameters in the document use Q on the panel.
Family and parameters can be exported in formatted .csv table for further query inside Excel.
