Question:
Load the door openings from the installed family library. Why
do you have to add this as a component rather than a door?

Why are some parameters
type parameters and some
instance parameters?
Family A Family B
Type Parameter 1 Type Parameter 1
Type Parameter 3
Instance Parameter 3

Its also about design thinking process:
When architects think of doors, do they
think of materials first or the geometry first?
Normally geometry, for example, they draw
double doors (family) on the floor plan first
and then decide about its wood material
(type) later.
