Adding Shape Handles to a Component Family
You can add shape handles to a component family that display when loaded into a project. The shape
handles allow you to resize the component in the project, which means you can make many different sized
instances in the project without the need to create multiple types beforehand in the Family Editor. For more
information about shape handles, see
Controls and Shape Handles on page 279.
Example of a generic component in plan and 3D views with shape handles
added
To add shape handles to a component family, you must do the following:
■ Add reference lines or reference planes to the family.
■ Align the reference lines or reference planes to the edge of the component where you want the shape
handle to display.
■
Add a dimension to the reference lines or reference planes.
■ Label the dimension as an instance parameter.
■ Save the family and load it into a project. When you select the component, shape handles display where
the reference lines are aligned and dimensioned.
To add shape handles:
1 Within the Family Editor, add reference planes or reference lines parallel to where you want the
shape handles to display.
In the following image, a generic component with a simple extrusion is shown in plan and 3D
views. Reference lines have been added parallel to the left and right edges.
