This is driving me nuts. I have a site with 3 identical houses on it and 2 houses that are slightly different so I created 3 different models, one for the 3 identical houses and one each for the 2 slightly different houses. These models have been linked into the site plan model one link for each of the 2 slightly different houses and 3 instances of the same model for the identical houses. I have set the locations for each of the instances and named them 24, 26 & 28 for the identical houses. In the linked file it shows the 3 locations as I specified in the site model, however I need to be able to give a unique mark number to each of the windows and doors of the houses so 24, 26 & 28 need different mark numbers for each window. I thought that if I changed the location in the link file then give the elements their mark number, change the location and give that locations elements different mark numbers. It won't! does anyone know how to achieve this. See the attached file to help illustrate this

Thanks

Anybody got any ideas on this one? The only thing that I can think of is to have a seperate file for each of the 3 identical instances and give each element a unique mark number in their individual files.

I think this might be the only way to go, unless you "fake" the tags and put your own symbols and draw your own schedule table.
