I so hope someone can helpIve been given the task to see if it can be done and ive hit a brick wall.Ive been asked to see if it is possible to have a family selection associated with a specific parameter within a roomFor example:If a room has a heat specification of 1 when you drop a family (say a radiator) into that room it will change the rad to a type 1If then I have a room with a heat specification of 2 (dropping the same radiator family) into that room it will change to a rad type 2.They are wanting this as an automated action, but I dont think this can be done, can it? I know you can create different family types within a family but is there a way of making it automated depending on a specific parameter?Please help im pulling my hair out trying to figure it out, and when you tell said people im not sure it can be done, their reply is im sure it can you just need to find out how. AAAHHHH!!!!!Thanks so much in advanceMark

I don't see how you can do this automatically as you ask but I think you can do it easily by using a working schedule.

Create a schedule that shows the rad type, the associated room specification and sort by room spec then rad type and don't show all instances.  Select those rad types that don't match the room spec and change the type from the schedule.
