    <title>idea Family Editor - prompting on existing Family Parameters while typing formulas en Revit Ideas</title>

    <description>&lt;P&gt;Imagine Revit prompts you on the names of existing Family Parameters inside your family while you are typing your&amp;nbsp;fancy formula. The same or similar way as advanced text editors or programming IDEs work - see Notepad++, SharpDevelop or Visual Studio for reference.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;If you want to use an existing parameter name you could select it using arrows and TAB while you type.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;That would speed up content development and make it a lot easier! And less error pop-ups.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;I agree. Autocomplete (with some grace for spelling errors/capitalization) would definitely make intelligent family design more intelligent, as well as greatly reduce the learning curve.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It could also include suggestions for names of lookup tables and column names (when in a size_lookup formula), unit types for suggested parameters and filter on parameters of applicable types only, or demonstrate the use of a mathematical or logical function.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Super idea, this would help developers a lot and also save time developing.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;This would absolutely be useful and make it easier to create formulas with dependencies.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/2898916"&gt;@Clogboy82&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;wrote:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;unit types for suggested parameters and filter on parameters of applicable types only, or demonstrate the use of a mathematical or logical function.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;HR /&gt;&lt;/BLOCKQUOTE&gt;&lt;P&gt;Maybe prompting valid typed parameters only wouldn't be the&amp;nbsp;best idea - you can often adjust type, for instance turn length into number&amp;nbsp;or vice versa.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Syntax prompting would be great for people occasionally working with formulas. Why they haven't come up with it yet?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;a href="https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/user/viewprofilepage/user-id/4424911"&gt;@adam.krug&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;Like this idea.&amp;nbsp; A good partner idea would be to give the option to specify an abbreviated name for parameters with long names.&amp;nbsp; Frequently parameters that come from a shared parameter library can be lengthy, making sitting through formuli difficult.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
