Publish / copy geometry with family tables

Hi,

Can publish / copy geometry be used (WF4) in combination with family tables. i.e I have a model with a publish geometry feature and another model with a copy geometry feature where both parent and child models have a number of FT instances. I seem to get only the generic published geometry in each instance of the the child model. Can I control which instance of the parent model the copy geometry feature references in each instance of the child model?

thanks

Allan

Your copy geometry needs to be set to external. You need to set up a column for Ref Model in the child generic and change the name to the correct parent instance. Both instances need to be in session for the copy geometry to update.
