      <description>&lt;P&gt;The Revit people will complain, because then how could they duplicate ad infinitum a family just because there is a single added parameter?&amp;nbsp; But more seriously, if the family being "linked" is stored in a previous version of Revit, it will have to be "upgraded" every time you open your model -- this in an incredibly tedious process when it is a linked model of another discipline -- and I can predict that the Revit programmers would have every family instance reset to its default parameter values every time a parameter is added.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I think that&amp;nbsp;reloading&amp;nbsp;on opening or reloading on demand should be an option. That is, related families can remain loaded in the project until the user wants to update them&amp;nbsp;or specify an automatic update.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <title>Families to work as links</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;As described in the title, the idea is for families to work as links. Meaning that if you update a family outside a template or project, it would automatically update in all the projects/templates that have that family loaded.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This is sort of happening already: when you edit a family from inside a project, Revit would prompt you to update the original family file, and to locate it if it's not automatically found.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The idea is for this logic to work both ways. This would avoid having to reload families to replace them with their updated versions.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;If I understand your request, you would like family to operate the same way as an inventor part. The parts can be edited independently from the assembly and automatically updated in any assembly where a given part is used.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;I will use a window family as an example on why I think this is a bad idea.&amp;nbsp; For arguments sake you include the sill details in the window family it will work for 1 project only. If you use that window family in another project that has different specifications and update it accordingly it then updates in the first project too creating errors for specifications required by the first project. Therefore I don't think it is a good idea to have external referenced family. I think it is better they are nested within the project is they currently are, so a change to the window family will not affect all projects where that window is used.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;With the launch of Content Catalog, let's get live-linked Families (with change notes listed, and the option to Reload or Not) back on the radar.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;This Idea should be merged with this one:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;A href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-ideas/live-linked-families/idi-p/9911570" target="_blank"&gt;https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-ideas/live-linked-families/idi-p/9911570&lt;/A&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
