Thanks Pete, and easy one when you know how.

I'm looking forward to when the word name function is fully working :)

Re: Room/Zone Group assignment Word searching

I have recently working on the navigation for one LEED project, I created our own space type list in the Room/zone Group Assignment using space by space method, I manually assigned spaces into groups as the word search create problems, however, not all space groups end up shown in the active space types, it doesn't make sense, we have checked the thermal template name is identical to the space group name, and the individual room was assigned to the correct thermal template, what could be the mistake? If all the room was assigned correctly to the thermal template and it wouldn't appear as active, can we still manually assigned to the baseline and proposed HVAC system for calculation??? I hope I made this clear and please help us :) Thank you in advance:)

Hi ahsaaah,

It does sound like your custom additions haven't been recognised by the IESVE PRM model.

One hint is to make sure the Room Group Name and Thermal Template name match exactly, I believe this is case sensitive so you must be careful,, Maybe you could create a new test model to practise this until you are confident it is working as you expect and that you are comfortable with how to do this so you gain some confidence in the live project.
