    Default Global Variable

    I would like to set up a variable that controls the width of the trim on all the interior doors in a model. I have tried setting up a shared parameter but changing that shared parameter for one of the doors has no affect on any of the other door families in the model. I am using 2012.

    Default Re: Global Variable

    The trim family would be shared and nested into your door families, that way you change the properties of the trim family and it updates everywhere its used.
