Managing profile-driven types
- Several elements use profiles to help define their shapes. We can use profiles in both system and in non-system families. But in this movie, I'm going to focus on the system families. Now, in the previous movie, I talked about loading in profiles and where you would locate them on the system and where you might store them, and the process you would use to get them in your template. In this movie, I want to just look at once you've got some profiles established, how you actually use them to shape and form the various system families that you've got within your template. The reason I'm focusing on system families is because they're already built in, so these are good candidates for building into the template. Profiles that are used in non-system families you can store either in the template or outside the template in separate RFA files, so you might choose to do either one. But with the system families, you don't have as much flexibility. That's why we're going to look at those here…
