Ability to denote general Room/Space types or have Manage Room Properties pick up the room/space tag info

Hi @rafaelhok,

@rafaelhok

So let me circle back to my first post in this chat. The intent in being able to “denote room/space types…” was to be able to include more information as part of the display name like shown in the image

Thank you for the summary! I know that we took this somewhat out of scale! There were two challenges to implementing what you asked for directly:

1. This was one of those feature requests that didn’t make sense to add to the main UI because it is workflow-specific. You can see a different feature request here for adding the story name to the display name. Most likely there will be more of these coming.
2. Our solution for such cases, is to develop an app but because of our current limited ability to change the information in Revit that wouldn’t work.

Model Editor is going to change this, as we can easily and quickly develop automated workflows to edit the information in the Model Editor.

I have been advocating for having a more general space type classification on ApacheRoom Data to allow for more easier changing between 90.1 versions without full reassignment of data.

@crduggin, I need to learn more about this. I thought one can easily swap the Thermal Templates for rooms once they have been assigned.

It looks like we need an intermediate step during the translation to allow the user to map the Program Types or Rooms to the existing Thermal Templates in VE.
