Hi all, 

using Revit 2015 and curtain walls. We would like to give the curtain wall a parameter value, the mark. We want all panels(windows) in that curtain wall to get the same mark as it's parent curtain wall. Is this possible? 

Thanks!

Jeroen

No way that I can see to do this automatically.   You can add a project parameter to CW panels that you could fill in manually.

Thin i've found a way. We have the Revit "Tools4Bim" add-ins. With this i can reach the "Host Mark" parameter. I can copy this value to a parameter in the hosted windows and doors. 

I can't automate this, so it's not quite fool-proof, but it's a way! 

If only we could reach this parameter in normal Revit, and we could make a nice formula to automate this...
