Scheduling Shared Components

To create a schedule containing shared families, you use the same method as any other schedule. See Schedules.

When you nest and share families, you can schedule shared families as individual instances. A family comprised of shared and nested families allows each instance of a nested family to schedule separately. Within the schedule, you can renumber each instance of a nested family.

If a nested family contains multiple categories, each instance of a nested family displays in its respective schedule and all components will display on a multi-category schedule.

In contrast, in a family where no nested families are shared, instances of the nested families schedule only as one instance.
