Families: Mechanical Equipment sub-categories

[stu_bas]

Can I group families under a sub-category?

I have received the two highlighted families from a vendor and I would like to put them together under a sub-category called 'Coolers'. Is this possible? I have many more and would like to keep them all together.

@stu_bas it is possible to add sub-categories to the Families under parameters. But to Organize them under sub-categories in Project browser is not an option as the families uses system Default Family Category and cannot be over written.

OK, thanks. It's a pity but thanks for taking the time to reply.

You could change the name of the families and give them a prefix so that in alphabetical order they are grouped by prefix.

I'm sure I did this before using DiRoots One Family Reviser:

That's quite a good idea. Thanks for the suggestion.
