family table message

[sadrok]

What does "Cannot add a parameter existing in a parent table of this object" mean? The part i am trying to add to the table does not exist there yet.

Have you used the parameter in an earlier family table eg


screw has parameter for series (metric / inch), type (countersunk, etc), diameter & length.


if you create a family table using series and inadvertently add the length to the table, it will be unavailable in all subsequent tables.
