View Full Version : 2013 Break All Constraints - Maybe a wishlist command?

Is there a way to pick a family and break all of the constraints?

I have a window aligned with the windows from the storeys below.

Now I'm trying to pick a new host for the top one in the set, but I can't get a hold on the constraints to delete them, and the pick new host command is moving all of my windows in the stack.

Wouldn't it be nice if I could right click a family and say, get rid of any constraints tied to this family?

Can I?

OK,

I went to the elevation view, copied the lower windows to the clipboard, less the top one i"m trying to rehost, then deleted and pasted aligned to same place. Now the lowers weren't related to the top one.

You could also move the window in question, and pick "Disjoin" at the top, just under the ribbon, while the Move tool is active. Just remember to uncheck it the next time you move something or you'll be getting lots of errors.
