Hi there I am trying to create simple family to represent timber trim with material, width, height and depth parameters (which I can do) but I want to be able to control the height by the blue triangle (see attach drawing). I probably miss a basic thing but I don’t understand how to do the double lock and the need and reason for the symbolic line. nirim

I'm not 100% sure what your question is but I downloaded your family and loaded it into a project. It works just fine as is. To get the blue triangle (shape handles) to appear in a project you need to view and select it in an 'elevation view'. You won't get the shape handles to show up in a 3d view. See attached image. I'm not sure why you are locking that horizontal 5'-11 dimension however? Get rid of it.

Thanks guys for the replay What I trying to achieve is simple rectangular extruded mass built on the generic model template to be able to use it as a simple timber trim, and be able to control the width, depth, material and height. I can do all of that but I want to control the height also by the blue triangle (in a project and not in the family itself). The family that I posted is the good example but done by some body else, and as mention earlier I wasn’t sure how to achieve the double lock and what the symbol lines are for. Attaché is the family that I want to build. nirim
