Family Creation 2 (parametric Arrays)
After we have placed the
Cupboard door down on the
Ref. Level view, go to the
‘Front’ elevation. We want to
raise the Cupboard door off the
Ref. Level. We do this by, in the
‘Front’ Elevation view, selecting
the Cupboard Door and going
to its properties and adjusting it
‘Offset’ value to 100mm.
Note that the host for the
Cupboard Door is the Level:
Ref. Level and the level on
which it was placed is: Ref.
Level
Next we will adjust the size of
the Cupboard Door specifically
its Width. Select the Cupboard
Door Plain, click on ‘Edit Type’
in the properties pallet and set
the Width to 450mm.
-
These parameters are
coming from the
Cupboard Door Plain’s
family.
The next thing that we will be
doing to the Cupboard Door
Plain is overriding its Width and
Height parameters. (This is
done because we want to
control these parameters from
inside the Kitchen Cupboard
Adjustable family). Select the
Cupboard Door Plain and click
on ‘Edit type’ in the properties
pallet. You will see that at the
end of the Width and Height
parameter fields there are grey
buttons. Click on the grey
button that is in the Width line.
