    Scheduling Areas from multiple files. Can blank rows be added for missing areas?

    I'm creating areas in the 13 buildings, which I've linked into a master file in revit. They all have areas in them, labelled as Type 1, 2 or 3.
    I've created a Schedule on a sheet that gives a breakdown of how many area types are in each building. Building B and W don't have any Type 2 or 3 areas. This leaves a gap in the schedule (since there's nothing to count, it doesn't say zero, instead it shows NOTHING). Is there a way to create a false positive that isn't counted?

    In the attached picture, I tried to cheat by creating an area in Building B, then deleted it. There's no area to total up (that's good!), but it still counts towards the total Count (that's bad!).

    If it's an item in the schedule it's going to be counted in the hard-coded totals function. The schedule counts what 'is' not what 'isn't'. If you still need to actually show a row for the building types that don't have your <area type>, maybe a workaround would be create a new numerical project parameter, manually input your values and total those?
    There are no stupid questions, only stupid people
