All doors in this schedule display rooms they are leading from (using "From Room" parameter)except 101. Any thoughts what could be causing it?

If the door was "flipped" after placement, the schedule field " to / from " does not update.

When you flip the door, there is still the option to manualy update. In my case I have no option to choose from nor can I type anything in the drop down box. I can typeover room name when the schedule is placed on the title block, but that's not the point.

Make yourself a new Door Schedule with nothing but the Door Mark, Room From number, and Room To number. This a a handy little trick to make sure not only that the from and To are correct, but also that the Doors and Rooms match.

(I still want to have Room From/To as part of the actual Door Number, tho :wink: )

The original Room 101 was in George Orwell's 1984, a place where people people were tortured. In the TV program (UK) of the same name, celebrity guests can put things they hate into Room 101, but only if they can persuade the presenter, Paul Merton, and the audience.

Therefore whatever goes into Room 101 never comes back out and therefore you would not have a door coming FROM Room 101

Have you uncovered a secret developers sneak or is your choice of room numbers just a coincidence?

I’ll go with the conspiracy theory until there is a better explanation

Done but nothing shows up except Door Mark (numbers).

Are those Curtain Walls Room Bounding?

I see by your image that you've got a Room Boundary for Room 101 (the red line), but what created that? If it's not the curtain wall that bounds the room (if, for instance, you used Room Separation lines to created Room 101), any door in that curtain wall would not know what room it's coming From or going To.

Did that make sense?

You are right, curtain walls are bounding room 101 and no room separation lines are used (although I tried that too, to shift boundary line at door 101 to outher edge). Tried also replacing curtain wall panel and door (101) with regular wall and door as suggested in other thread, but didn't help.

i cant answer your question but would like to know about your door numbering. I read a post awhile ago that said that you can't label door according to the room number. i noteced that you have doors that are labeled 101a, 101b etc that occur in room 101. I thought this was not possible. how is this accomplished? are the doors picking up the room number, or are you manually numbering them 101a, 101b etc.?

Yes, I enter them manually.

does anyone know if this will be addressed to be automatic? That would be a great option. coming from an adt background, this is something that can be done there and i will miss this tool.

We had to manually add them also but when the building changed and all the rooms shuffled, it sucked to re-number the doors. Automatic would be a great wish list item.

Alek,

I'm having the same problem. Did you ever figure it out?
