don't think: Do Revit: +/- offset(s) for families : 'via Blog this' Step by step solution to +/- offset values for families. Parallel to the reference/surface point(A): 1. Create a reference plane in the + offset direction, 2. Call it "REF.OFFSET+" 3. Dimension from the reference point(A) to the plane. 4. Give the dimension a parameter "OFFSET.FRONT" (group it under 'other') 5. Between point(A) and the reference plane, create another reference plane. 6. call it "REF.OFFSET-" 7. Create a dimension between the reference plan from step 1 and the one just created in step 3. 8. Given the dimension a parameter "OFFSET.BACK" (group it under 'other') 9. In the family properties, Create a Length parameter called "OFFSET". 10. Next to the "OFFSET.FRONT" under 'other' group, add the formula: if(OFFSET > 0', OFFSET, 0') 11. Next to the "OFFSET.B...
