List zones in a specific hotlinked module

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hi Folks,

I'd like to create a list of zones in a specific instance of a hotlinked module. The situation is about an apartment building with lots of apartments (using many instances of a single hotlinked module) and I have to describe the areas belonging to each unit.
Any ideas?

I don't think there is any way to sort them by the instances of the module. You can easily do a typical list by showing matching items as a single entry (and not showing the quantity field). You could also produce such a list from the source of the module if it is an external file.

Do you need to list each apartment separately? The only thing I can think of would be to place separate zones in the building model for each unit and schedule the rooms within the unit zones, but I don't think this is possible.

Yes, I need to list it separately.
Your idea of placing individual zones works (giving an ID of the unit for each zone), but it would take more time to achieve. I wanted something like an ID for a hotlinked module that would be associated to all of the elements inside it. So with it I could create a zone list with the criteria "Hotlinked Module ID = "My Unit" " But by now its just a wish
