Hi,

I have a window family in which I would like to edit so that it measures within the frame..

please see attachment.. (dimension in black = existing ; dimension in red = how I'd like the parameter to measures to)

Thanks in advance!!

HEIGHT =1500

WIDTH =1000

DEFAULT SILL HEIGHT =800

FRAME THICKNESS =40

create new parameters and add formula (you can also choose not to assign it to any dimension) or (you can just do it in schedule as well):

HEIGHT2 =HEIGHT - (FRAME THICKNESS*2)

WIDTH2 =WIDTH - (FRAME THICKNESS*2)

SILL HEIGHT2 =DEFAULT SILL HEIGHT+FRAME THICKNESS
