View Full Version : Custom Parameters - Sort Order?

Hi All,

When creating components, often we all create custom parameters. What is the Logic by which Revit sorts these parameters?

Please look at the attached screen capture. Clearly, the Dimension Parameters are not in alphabetical order.

I have no idea how / why it sorts the way it does.

Not a big deal, right? Certainly not the end of the world, but when creating standard components for the entire office, we need the components to work flawlessly, and be completely logical.

Anyone have any advice?

Bryan,

I remember reading a post long time ago, from our fellow member Scott Hopkins, where he found a clever way to accomplish that. I'll try to find the thread and post the link here.

Thanks again, Andre.

Nifty trick. Definitely a hack, but at least it works for the time being!
