I created that window family I mentioned in my earlier posts.

The window type showed up in the window schedule.  But the window dimension didn't.

What's the reason of it?  I know you can enter the dimension directly into the schedule.  But it would be nice if it comes it automatically.  See attached file.

Thanks in advance.

You don't have those parameters (height and width) established in the window family. All that is there is rought height and rought width and for some reason those are set to 555'

so add those parameters in the family, reload into your project, and they will show up in the schedule

Here is your window with those parameters added. And dont forget to include the respective fields (width & heigth) in the schedule.

OK, I figured out what the problem is.

Now this is my next question,.  I was able to make the width without any problem: meaning when I change the width,

the mullion, glazing, rough opening, all follow the width.

But the height doesn't work that way, what's the reason of it?

See attached file.

Thanks in advance.

I suggest you download the families guide from the autodesk site.  That will show you how to create parametric families and how to use parameters.
