Using Arc Parameters to Enhance Detail in Revit Family Customization

BIM Software Tip: Using Arc Parameter-Driven Details in Revit Family Customization

During the process of customizing families in Revit, there are times when you need to lock both ends of an arc while using parameters to drive the radius. This causes the center of the circle to adjust accordingly.

With this option enabled, any adjustments will behave as follows:

If you uncheck this option:
