linking parent and child family parameters

[gavin_hazlett]

I am trying to link the parameters between my child and parent family, but I can't associate the parent parameters with the child parameters even though I have clicked the shared button on the child family.

It's one way only - associate parameters of a child family with parameters of the parent family.

I understand I am trying to do that but it is not working

In the family, make the parent parameter equal to the nested family parameter.

I am trying but I can't (see my marking)

Make child parameters instance.
