I am working on a school auditorium. I have to document the existing seating. 

This is a time consuming task.  I used the original drawings as a guide. 

I layed out the radius center point and located the seat rows with offsets. 

It is a pain to start at the level, rotate from the center point, array. 

I have to do the same procedure for every different chair size.

Now I have to adjust the seating per actual layout. 

Does revit have a quicker way to lay these out with various chair widths and have it flex if parameters change?

Here is an example of how to let Dynamo do that in Revit:  https://www.dropbox.com/sh/nkj7ghf609inbj4/AABxjtKF5PzRPhIdqaaKXZHBa/04%20Auditorium%20seating?dl=0
