    <description>&lt;P&gt;Currently, the 'Shared' property of nested families enables the behaviours below, all together:&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;OL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Cut Plane -&lt;/STRONG&gt; Nested family has its own cutting behaviour in views.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;View Overrides -&lt;/STRONG&gt; Nested family can be overridden using category and view filters, separate from its host.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Schedules -&lt;/STRONG&gt; Nested family is treated as a separate family in schedules, and when the model is exported to other formats (eg IFC).&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/OL&gt;&lt;P&gt;Sometimes we need one or two of these behaviours, but don't want the other. Most commonly, I want to override the graphics for the nested family, or need it to have a separate cut plane, but still want it to be treated as part of the same family when I export the model. Having too many shared nested components makes the model too granular and impossible to produce proper COBie and IFC outputs, however, is sometimes needed to control graphics.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;I suggest adding a separate property to families - 'Allow View Overrides' - which enables cutting and view overrides (1 and 2 above), without making the family 'Shared'.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
