filter a door table

I'd like to filter a door table that I'm adding to a Data sheet.  We have nested door panels in our assembled door families.  Currently when I make a Door Table, it's showing the individual nested door families as well as the overall assemble family.  We have used the "Appears In Schedule" parameter to filter out the panels in our Revit Door schedule, I'd like the ability to do the same in our door tables that we've added to our data sheets.  

I've looked at the help menu and I see an option to filter Category Tables, but I don't see one to filter a door table.

Hi Matt,  I gave that a try.  Not sure what syntax I screwed up, but your suggestion doesn't appear to have worked.  Here's what I have.  As a test, I just added the parameter to the Door Table when I created it.

This Worked and looked correct

 [DoorContents:Doors:AppearInSchedule=AppearInSchedule,Direction=Direction,ElementName=ElementName,Mark=Mark,TypeName=TypeName]

This didn't return anything.

 [DoorContents:AppearInSchedule=1:Doors:AppearInSchedule=AppearInSchedule,Direction=Direction,ElementName=ElementName,Mark=Mark,TypeName=TypeName]

I believe I followed your suggested format.

Dave,

if possible can you visit the data sheet page, and them immediately after go to the Server/Logs page and send us in the recent Clarity Website logs? There might be an answer in there…

Dave,

I'll pass something on so that someone updates the Help file...

Similar to the Category Table, the filtering for From/To has the following kind of syntax:

[DoorContents:TheFilter:TheCategory:TheFields]

Would the "Shared" setting for a family be useful to identify the nested ones?

You could say "Shared=0" as the filter?

But yes, looks like you could also use a parameter like "Appears In Schedule=1".
