Entering value in Formulated Parameter

Hi,

 

   I am currently working on a framing family where I wish to provide the ability to set 2 different value of flange size for an I beam. My question is, is it possible to write a formula into the flange parameter where if they are not symmetrical it allows the user to fill in that formulated parameter itself.

 

ex

   I have one parameter b and the other b1. I would like to set the parameter b1 equation to be equal to b in the even if both the flange are symmetrical but at the sametime if there are not I want to be able to directly key in value for that b1 parameter. Is that possible? I have already set a Yes/No command to varify if its symmetrical but do not wish to add extra parameter again for false if statement 

 

=if(symmetrical,b,<any possible command that allows us to key in>)

Nope. It is not possible to set a Parameter to be formula driven under certain conditions and to a user-input under others. You will have to have a separate Parameter that is dedicated for user input for the asymmetrical length, and then reference that Parameter with your formula.
