Now, what makes those reference planes move are dimensions, and then once those dimensions get changed, then the entire cube will adjust in size based off of the dimensions. The entire assembly put together is called a parametric component, meaning that if you change one property, other properties that are a part of this family will adapt and adjust. To add annotation, or add dimensions to this family, we come up here to the Annotate tab, and then select on the Aligned Dimension. What we need to do is add dimensions to each one of these reference planes. So to accomplish that task, you click on the reference plane, click on the next reference plane, click on the reference plane, and then just click somewhere out here in space. And just make sure to do that on both sides. The next thing that we need to do is…
