Hello all, I'm trying to put together a vertically-arraying louver curtain wall panel. I've got the louver system set up, and it arrays correctly, but whenever I try to assign a height parameter based on the height of the curtain wall panel, it messes up. I had to use a system height parameter in the system family I'm embedding in the curtain wall panel; as a result, whenever I import it into a project and assign it to a panel, it maintains that height instead of expanding to the full height of the panel. I tried to remedy this by assigning a dimension parameter to the panel height in the panel family, and then associating the system height variable to taht dimension parameter, but whenever I change that variable in the types menus I get a constraints not satisfied error. Moving the panel dim. manually is fine, but editing it with the parameter screws it up. How it is now I can work with it, but I'd like to fix this so that it will takes me less time; I'm putting a ton of these over a skyscraper project for school, and would like it to take the least amount of time possible. I've included the family file here. Thanks for the help
