Hi everybody,

I recently made a custom family that contains a nested family that I would like to be able to turn on and off with a visibility parameter. What is the best way to do this?

Thanks!

Matt

There are many ways of doing it. it really depends on what the family is and what u want to use it for.

you can set an instant parameter (yes/no) and control the visibility in the project.

you have to give the nested family's visibilty a parameter in the nested family and link it to a parameter in the master family. the Visibility property embed in the master family doesn't works.
