I just spent almost as much time thinking about how to phrase this question that I did playing with the family and I don't think that I am any closer to being coherent.

 I am trying to create a grid of equally spaced elements based on overall width and length of the field. I have an array along the X axis that based on the 2nd item position (which I want as a parameter "panel width". I have then arrayed that array in the Y axis, based on the 2nd item position and the same distance ("panel width".

Everything works swimmingly until I attempt to change the panel width. The Y axis (the array of the original array) adjusts accordingly, but the X axis (original array) breaks. I can not figure out how to make that part work. When I try to edit the original array and lock the 2nd object to the refrence plane I set up (as I did the first time I made it) I can not align lock it at all.

 Any suggestions?

Thanks! I actually had come to that a moment before you responded. I tried it and it works perfectly. I always knew you "should" only array nested families, but now I will change my nomenclature to "shall" only array nested families or else it won't work right.

Thanks again.
