The bottom two families shouldn't be included in this list, what's wrong here?

Just tested this. I can recreate this by adding a value to a filtered parameter, and then deleting the value.

 

"Has a value" is basically looking to see if a parameter is "null". You can't get back to "null" once you've put a value in. This is easy to see with a length parameter, for instance. It starts as blank (null), but once you put in a dimension, you can't make it blank again, only 0.

 

To fix, add another filter for "does not equal" and leave it blank.

In text parameters,

  • a BLANK is a value by itself 
  • a NULL = no value

Considering you have edited that text parameter by clearing the text string in it "Done" or "Nested" , its current value became "" ie: Blank...you should notice that value in the drop down menu

 

Hence, you need to filter out the blanks to do that you can use either of the following conditions

  • not equal to
  • greater than
