Description

1. Open the standard Revit sample file RAC_basic_sample_project.rvt
2. Setting the view to the standard Revit 3d view helps see what is happening in this tutorial
3. Start Rhino.Inside.Revit by pressing the the Rhino icon under Add-Ins
4. In the Rhinoceros Toolbar in Revit, select the Rhino Player icon
5. Open the door-param-script.gh

This definition will run immediately. Grasshopper will not show, and the player will start and finish. If you select one of the doors, you will see the Mark and Comment are now duplicated.

Now take a look at the definition by selecting the Grasshopper Icon in the Revit Rhinoceros toolbar and opening the door-param-script.gh definition.

The definition finds all the Doors setting a Category Filter and finding all the Elements of that Category. Then, using the Element Parameter Component each Mark is found for each door. Then the Comments parameter is set using the Element Parameter component.
