Yes, this is possible with a Grasshopper definition that uses VisualARQ Grashopper components.<\/p>\r\n

Steps:<\/p>\r\n

    \r\n
  1. Make sure you have VisualARQ loaded in your current document. You can do that by typing _vaInit<\/span> or any other VisualARQ command like _vaWall<\/span>.<\/li>\r\n
  2. Type Grasshopper<\/em> in the Command line in order to launch Grasshopper.<\/li>\r\n
  3. Download and open the following file in Grasshopper: “Create Multiple Levels.gh<\/strong><\/a>“<\/li>\r\n
  4. In that definition you will see different parameters to edit for the “Building” component and for the “Levels” Component. These parameters are:\r\n
      \r\n
    • Building Name<\/li>\r\n
    • Levels Name<\/li>\r\n
    • Ground Floor Elevation<\/li>\r\n
    • Floor\/Level Height<\/li>\r\n
    • # of Levels<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n
    • After setting the Levels parameters, select the Building Component<\/em>, right-click, and select Bake<\/em>.<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n

      The Building and levels will be now created in your document, according to the parameters entered in Grasshopper.<\/p>\r\n

      You can now modify the Levels and Building parameters from the Level Manager panel individually _vaLevels<\/span>\"\"<\/span>. If you want to change the entire Levels parameters again, delete the Building<\/em> element in the Level Manager panel (all levels will be deleted as well), open Grasshopper, and repeat the process again.<\/p>\r\n

      In this video you can see an example of how to create a multilevel building in Grasshopper, that explains in detail how to create multiple levels at once.<\/p>\r\n
