Make IMPORT_INSTANCE_SCALE read/write in Revit

At the moment, the parameter IMPORT_INSTANCE_SCALE is read only.

In a Revit add-in that automatically links a CAD drawing (or any other link for that matter), you set the type's parameters, including the scale, units, etc...

 

However, if you want to create a new instance of this type with a different scale, this is not possible because this parameter is read only, which doesn't make sense to me me as it is a very common thing to have multiple time the same drawing linked with a different scale.

 

Note: that it is possible to scale an existing instance in the Revit UI but Not in the SDK which makes quite a big inconsistency
