That's interesting. The attached image shows an ArchiCAD object in use. Every wall opening in the image contains a single instance of the same GDL object, i.e. there is only a single GDL object in this project and the doors/windows are not made by bolting separate bits together. We'd been looking for similar technology and Revit, but everyone we've talked to couldn't come up with anything. Do you have any similar examples?

Ralph,

AFAIK Revit cannot do all that your example shows except perhaps by API.

Scott,

Please let me know if I am mistaken about this. Are the Revit parameters really that flexible? I haven't had the chance to push the limits of family editing. The fanciest thing I've done is using CSV files for preset parameter values.

BTW: It's good to see you back. Is this a change in Adesk policy?
