window frame/mullions schedulle

[tdpalmeida]

Hello

I'm currently doing a partition familly and i'm having trouble with the schedulles.

So i was doing the familly as a window and i cant see their dimmensions in the schedulle.

The window familly is made with mullions and each mullion as lenght but in the end i can't make them show up and be in the schedulle.

I don't know what i'm doing wrong.

Or if i should skip this and use a courtain wall.

Any ideas?

There are no values for Height and Width as you show.  What do you expect?

when i use the height in the formula it restrains the mullion and when i had it in whe window familly it doesn't work.

So i'm using the lenght and when i add the mullion to the familly i say that the lenght is the height

If you want to schedule Length then make it a Shared parameter.  

If you want Height to the same as Length and schedule Height then add a formula to Height formula box in the family: =Length

In order to report the "LENGHT" Parameter Value of the Shared Nested Family in your Project Schedule, the Parameter must be a SHARED PARAMETER.  

....OR, the "LENGTH" Parameter in the Nested Family must be ASSOCIATED to a Shared or In-Built Parameter in the Parent/Host Family.

Sorry i jumped this post.

You gave the solution in the beginning but for some reason i understood that i had to send the family.

Sorry for this and thanks again for the solution, its working fine right now

Good morning.

Dunno if it's better to open another topic or if i can still ask here but.

I changed the mulions to be cut by voids, but when i load them to the window and use a void they are not cut.

The idea is to make a 45º cut in the window that can be turned on and of.

Any idea how i can do it?

It is irrelevant to the parent topic, so a new thread/post would have been more suitable. but since you have asked the question already, it might as well be answered here.

If the mullions are nested components, you should use 1 of the following:

1. Either a nested Face based void if you intend to cut them in the window family
2. Pre-Cut the mullions before nesting ... ie: instead of cutting in the window family, cut with a void in the Mullion family

The cut with void when loaded is intended for cutting once loaded into the project/model
