Control material from within schedule (system family)

Is it possible to control a material from within a schedule. It works of course with a loadable family with a shared material parameter but I want to do the same with a system family (roofs, walls etc.)

Families with TYPE or INSTANT parameter for the Material...

you can Map that Material to " Global Parameters " in the project...

( shared parameter and shared parameter files not required )

 

For ex..

Multiple furniture with two to three material parameters..

once loaded in the project, map those parameter to " PROJECTS GLOBAL PARAMETER "

Here, you need to create New parameters in Global Parameters..

 

Parameter A - in Global Parameter ( Material )

Parameter B - in Global Parameter ( Material )

Parameter C - in Global Parameter ( Material )

 

So any material parameter ( Instance or Type ) from families, can be mapped .. 

so changing one global parameter can update multiple families ..

Ganesh, thanks for your answer but this is no answer to my question. I want to control wall, roof (system family)materials from within a schedule.

Test this
Model
Floor
Wall
Roof

Select those three elements, make an “ Assembly “
Create Material schedule for that assesmbly.
And then you can change materials in that schedule..

Default Material schedule will also work...
Because each and every family might have different number of materials ( parameter, instance or type ) there is no one schedule where you can see all the materials and change...

You need a material schedule and default way to do is by category..
like only walls, roof , floors etc..

It’s not possible to have a schedule with materials of roof, wall, system families.. instead you may use “ paint “ apply material and then using one schedule you can control all of that...

May be someone else can suggest a better way here..
Best luck
