assign a label to a new family of windows

[bagiolino]

Hello everyone,
Does anyone know how to assign the label to a new window? ?
I'll explain better.
I created a new window using the "Metric Window" family, I erased the default vacuum and shaped everything as I needed.
I made a lock with central window and windows at the hips but trying to load the family in the project comes out (justly) an incorrect label. in practice takes the width of the window and the height of the old vacuum.
Is there a way to generate a new label by associating them with the right measures? ?
Thank you.

the window label, has at the disposal the family parameters of the window, to indicate l and h, where generally you use length and height (see new> family> annotation>m_ label window) and by label text you selezinano parameters for l and h, precisely width and height.

In your case, in modifying the vacuum of the family you created, whose vacuum was connected to the parameters width and height, you have returned such parameters to :
- width = vacuum of the window
- height = of the vacuum of the (window)?

to answer your question, you must first answer this: the ethicket of the new window to what measures should it bring back? of the French door? side windows? all the new void?

Therefore, to make the desired size appear in the label, you just have to bring back the height and width parameters to the right references in the family you have modified!

there is also another method:
- do not bring back the parameters of width and height to any reference in the family, but, from family types, you can assign to such parameters the sum of other parameters that identify other measures of the window.
For example, you can assign to the partial widths of the doors the paramerts l1 (window sx) l2 (central window) l3 (dx window) . in the formula field (types) at the width parameter you put = l2+l3.
the width parameter, will be the sum of the three partial widths, and in the window label will appear the total size (= width parameter)
similarly for height

now in 2011, I think you can also use "relation parameters"
