In the family editor, I wish we could use Parameter names in Dimension Equations.

 

For instance, I want to have dimensions that are <= Width - 12"> or <=Height * 3>. I know I can add a new parameter defined with those equations and link the dimension to that parameter. I don't want to create and manage potentially dozens of separate but similar parameters. I know that I can throw in extra reference planes...in my first two examples, use the original parameter to control a reference line that controls (using a 12" locked dimension) another reference plane or string three original parameters together to create a triple height.  Both take longer and result in a more cluttered family than simply being able to us Parameter names in the dimension equation.

I have been thinking about that for a long time. Is it on the AUGI wishlist? (I am to lazy to look myself) Smile
