The receptacle annotation in
Figure 18.11
has two filled regions. The vertical
region is displayed to represent a GFI receptacle, while the half-circle
horizontal region is for a countertop receptacle.
Figure 18.11
Annotation family with multiple filled regions
The visibility of each region can be set to the Yes or No (selected or
deselected) value of a parameter defined in the family. This is done by
associating the value of the parameter with another by clicking the small
button at the far right of the parameter value field. When the annotation
family is loaded into a component family, its parameters can be associated
with parameters in the component family that define the type of component
and therefore which region to display.
Figure 18.12
shows that the visibility
of the vertical region is associated to a parameter in the annotation family
called GFI.
