Chapter 6
Modifying Families
Now that you have added a number of families to your project and the design has progressed, you’ll often find it necessary to modify the families. Sometimes swapping out a generic family component for one that is more specific is the best solution. In other cases, it’s simply a matter of opening the component family that you started with and tweaking the geometry to better fit your design. Either solution is viable — which you choose depends on the result that is better for your design process.
In this chapter, you learn the following skills:
- Editing view display and detail level
