We are trying to create a tag family. We would like to choose a single component to be visible and the other components (3) to not be visible. e.g. A is on and B, C, and D are off B is on and A, C, D are off etc... We tried to use parameters to control the visibility of the components, but are having trouble making our formulas function in the way we anticipated them to. We have read extensively in the help menu and on other RevitCity threads. We are still unable to make this work. We created the components in a family (each containing a label and a line). Then we created yes/no parameters named A, B, C, and D. We assigned each component (label and line) to A, B, C, or D parameter. We attempted to enter formulas in the Family Types dialogue box. We were unsuccessful with our syntax. Any suggestions?

There are a couple different ways you could do it. You could make them type parameters instead of instance and make a family type for each of the ones you want shown. Or you could create another parameter as an integer. It could be changed to 1-4 and you could set up formulas for the visibility "int = 1". "int = 2", etc.

Here's how I handle this. I create a parameter to controll the selection of the lable I want to see and set visibility parameters that will be driven by this. See attached image for how I set it up. HTH
