    Default Rebar Family

    I'm trying to create a slab reinforcing family that basically shows up as a line with hooks on either side and has upper and lower reinforcing text on either side of the line and i want to be able to control the text through the instance properties of the rebar family . I have the main family in which i have the lines for the rebar drawn and i have 2 more label families for the upper and lower labels. In the 2 label families i have labels made for upper and lower text and i've got parameters made for both. For some reason, when I load everything into my project, there's a disconnect with the parameters and labels and the changes that i make through the instance properties dialog box of my main rebar family don't show up. For instance, when i type in 20@250T in my upper label parameter under indentity data, my rebar family stays as a question mark. I'm starting to lose my patience so if anyone has any suggestions or solutions, i would very much appreciate it.

    Thanks in advance

    Are your text elements generic component labels or shared parameters?

    Have you associated the label values with your inserted families?

    What sort of family is it? Detail component or Symbol?
