    Accessing system parameters in a multi-category schedule

    I understand that a Multi-category schedule cannot access the standard Height and Width parameters of items it finds. I know I need to set a shared parameter (eg myScheduledHeight and myScheduledWidth) into each loadable component family that I wish to measure. This works fine.

    Is there a way to access these values of system families such as a wall, or a curtain wall, or the system curtain wall panel?

    Thanking you in advance.

    Not in an MC schedule. In a Wall schedule you can get the unconnected height but that doesn't help since it ignores profile edits or top/bottom attachments... a useless parameter if you ask me. You should be able to with a Curtain Wall Panel if you share/nest a family into it and extract the parameters from the shared/nested family instead.

      Indeed. That is what I have found so far. Thanks for the confirmation.
