Hello, I'm creating a window opening  started off with generic model wall based template) that shows header, sills, and detail components when cut in section. I set up parameters for the header height (ref level to bottom of header), opening width, opening height, and sill height (ref level to top of sill). Everything flexes good within the family. The one problem I have is when I load it into a project and try to change the type of the window to a different type (from 3'-6"x3'-6"xHH7'-10" to a 4'-6"x4'-6"xHH8'-0" (HH stands for header height) , revit disregard where my header is located. (Example: within my family, header parameter is set to 7'-10", but when I change it inside the project to show the header at 8'-0", revit makes the change and puts my header at a different height than 8'-0". So within my project, the only way to get the header to show at the correct spot, I have to click the window opening, element properties, and under constraints, change the sill height to equal (Header Height minus Opening Width). So my question is, Is there a way for revit to automatically show my header at the correct elevation when changing to a different window type? I don't want to change the sill constraints everytime I make a change to a window type. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

I have a correction to my post, the sill height equals Header Height minus Opening Height minus Sill Height.
