Hello Community.
I am having trouble figuring out how to link a custom Catalogue Item to a Custom Family/Part
I created an Object from a Compound cell and added to the Data Set Catalogue by using ‘Paradef’ BXC file. I have added some definitions to it and it works great. I then created a custom Family and parts XML and defined the Level to be used.
How do I link the Catalogue item (Object) to the Family/Part so that when a BIM modeller select and places the object in a model, the family & Part is pre-defined, ultimately ensuring the correct level is used. Currently it places the catalogue item on the active level.
I am using AECOsim Building Designer CONNECT (Update 3)
Thanks!
Hi Lourens,
for compound cells the family and part are applied directly to the geometry in the cell definition not via the datagroup.
Hope this helps
