    Visibility - only one chceck box

    Hi all,

    i need help with checking visibility box. I have four instant parameters of visibility and i need always only one box checked.

    Example:

    If i put in family to project, parameter A is checked, B,C,D is unchecked.

    If i checked parameter B, a need to automatic uncheck A.
    If i checked parameter C, a need to automatic uncheck B.

    and so on. Just only one parameter check automately.

    Is it possible to make it by If/than?

    Thank you very much. Lukas

    It's possibly using a fifth parameter called user input, where the user inputs a 1,2,3, or 4. Or using a family type selector parameter.

    Can't do it with just four yes/no parameters.

      Meanwhile, go vote up this Revit Idea
      I know there is a workaround for combo boxes within parameters of objects. But in my opinion this is not a good solution (see attached screenshot). The more "values" you have created in the same family type the longer the list will be! We need the possibilty to define parameters and their values wit...

      in the hopes that eventually this can be built in & we won't need workarounds

        Its possible... its just a real pain to implement.

        (This is from a AU document called AB327-4 Fuzzy Math Essentials for Revit Family Builders)

        If there are more than two exclusive options (Parameter A = Test, Parameter B = NOT(Test)) then use a Type selector with nested family.
        If you want to set a lot of parameters at the same time with one selection.. that is what Types are for.
