This may have been asked before but my searches so far have found nothing, so apologies if I'm going over old ground, but I have to ask.... Our S.Eng has been good enough to change their mind once again, having originally started out with 100SHS we have just finished adjusting our wall core types to their uprated 125SHS... but we've just recieved word that they'll not be up to the job and we're to now go to 150SHS! So.... (having always though about the possibility) is there a way to drive the change of all (affected) our wall cores using a parameter, like we can with families? So for instance, in our situation I'd simply punch in"125" and Revit would do the rest? Or say for instance the spec. one day calls for 12.5mm Plasterboard, the next day 15mm - chasing every wall & ceiling type to make the change is right PITA - and something like this would be a great bonus and I've always thought this should be a no-brainer, out-of-the-box feature of Revit. *I've always known about formula entry for thickness when editing wall layers, but I've never understood it's function - is that where I'm missing a trick?

Material layer thickness in walls have to be defined in the wall type editor. Currently, there is no method of doing this from a project level by material type properties. This is why we spent a very long time setting up our standard wall types.
