Window inset from the wall

[goulnazarianh]

Hello,
I'm trying to make the window inset like 5cm but when I upload it into the project the family dimensions will be changed automatically and for some reason I can't move the family to the desired window inset.Changed Dimensions / Wrong Window Inset

Constrain the inset dimension  of the window to the face of the wall in the family, or add a ref plane, lock it to the wall face and constrain the window to it. Change thickness of the wall in the family to test it.

What about the Modeling it's changing the dimensions by itself, how can I constrain them so that they don't change their dimensions?Correct oneDeformation because of the window inset

Select the parameters and lock them. Or change from Instance to Type parameters.
