I have a life-safety symbol that I place on my life safety plans showing the room occupancy type, square footage, s.f. per person, and number of occupants in the room.
The s.f. per person is a type parameter for the annotation, and I know I have to manually enter the area of the room, but I tried to make the number of persons calculate based on the S.F. instance parameter divided by the S.F. per person type parameter.
The family was originally created with all numerical parameters as Integer fields. When I added a formula to the number of persons field, it took the formula okay, but when I hit OK in the Family Types box I got an error saying "Can't find solution for formulas for Type 'Keynote',"
I tried changing all the fields to regular number fields (had to delete and re-create each parameter and re-assign the labels), but still I get the same error. Are formulas just not possible in annotation families?
