Hi,
I have to exchange my window tag.
Reight now i use a window tags familiy, but i have to creat tags inside a window familiy.
To do this I have to use a Generic Annotation Tags
It's easy to creat shared parameters "width and height", but i dont cnow how to creat Sill Height parameters which is a revit global parameter as head height.
In the projcekt we use Global window parameters Sill and Head Height to put window at the corect place.
Does anyone know a possible options?
Thanks
Jakub
Why the generic annotation? And Why not add the label for Sill height in the window tag directly?

It's becouse I export sometimes my revit to cad, and this solution would be helpful for people which i colaborat
I figured it out like a Default Sill Height is a sherd parameter.
But.
1. Default Parameters (Sill Height and Head Height) in the project have not work.
2. In this case, I have to change the way, how I build 50 windows family
You are over complicating your life...Simply add the Sill Height and Head Height to the Window tag
Family for tag attached

Sounds like you are trying to associate a nested label in the Window Family to a Reporting Parameter. It won’t work for Sill and Head Height because the Reporting Parameter’s Dimension would need to be pulled from host to non-host elements in the family. It would work if the Reporting Parameter Dimension referenced ONLY host elements in the family. For instance, you could use this approach to have the label report the thickness of the wall that the window is hosted to in the Project.
It is very much possible but as stated in previous reply, you would be over complicating thing!!! Generic Annotation Labels nested into families

I'm also searching for the way to do this. I think tags are messy and unnecessary extra work. With a generic annotation in the family itself (doors and windows) you wouldn't have to go through the painful tagging for every single plan view. ´Tag all not tagged´ is not really working because the tag placement is dependent of the door swing direction, so you have to manually arrrange tags aligned to the object. Painful! (I wonder why is that.)
