Parameter setup in Xporter Pro works in relation to the Project Parameters created directly in your Revit Project itself that Xporter Pro can then read and utilize to form part of the file naming convention and formatting when exporting various file formats. You do not have to make use of this ability if you do not want to however it does provide the means for a very useful parametric file naming mechanism out of Xporter Pro that Revit itself cannot do natively. There are three categories of Project Parameters that you can utilize with Xporter Pro being Sheet Parameters, View Parameters or Project Information Parameters. Create any required Project Parameters as you normally would within Revit itself just like the ...
