multiple swings window/door

Anonymous

I''m creating a window that has multiple swings. But I wanna manage the amount of swings. It's like I input an integer and the number of swings multiply by that integer. Can I do that? Please show me how.

Create a separate family for each leaf with the swing and nest these into your window family. The width of the leaf needs to have a parameter.
In the window family, array the panes, using a formula for the array count based on the width of the whole window. You will need a parameter linked to the leaf width, such as an integer parameter that divides the length by the required width of each leaf, or divides the length by a set number (to calculate the width of each pane).

Not enough information. Does every panel swing the same direction? Or are they pairs like multiple french doors? Or a half number of panels swing in one direction and the other half swing the opposite direction?

You think the differences shown below don't matter?

@Anonymous: I have a suggestion for you. Follow this link and download and inspect this Manufacturer's Door and Window Revit content to see how they do what you are asking about.  The way they do it is pretty much the way we all do it.
