Can I have a formula driven value in one family's parameter and then swap that family to another similar family with the same parameter but without the restrictions from the formula? Basically, I would like to pre-calculate intervals based on height but then have the freedom to swap families at the project level and the pre-calculated values would pass to the new family as values and not formula. Kinda like, Paste Special -> Values... Thank you, Timothy Livingston

For questions like this....gee - why don't you try it? Seems like it would teach you better and is so easy to do.

And for answers like this....
I have tried it thanks.
When I try to swap the formula driven family parameter, with the un-driven family parameter, the undriven values keep reverting back to the values in the family editor.
Always a pleasure reading your knee-jerk posts WW.
Thanks,
Timothy Livingston

I think my suggestion was pretty good. You answered it for all of us - thank you.
See how easy that was?

You really can't offend me because I just don't care what you think. I don't have time to deal with people that want others to do their work. There is a word for that but I didn't use it. I admire users that try an idea and come with a good question when they are stumped. People that do that are creative and responsible. You didn't do that.
If you had truely tried the process ahead of time then your follow up should have been your original question. But I doubt that you had.

Of course I have tried it!!
I have only use this forum in emergencies, knowing I would get some effed up response from WW.
My question is looking for tips or known limitations, best proactices, etc.
Should I be using a reporting parameter? Use a type family approach?
Things that could lead me in the right direction. Can you please stop responding to my posts all together?
I would like to hear what OTHER people say.
