Place nested families as independent

For each instance of a parent family you name, finds its point-hosted nested components and places independent copies at the same spots — matching parameters, rotation, and flip state — so you can work with them on their own.

Saves ~15 min / model

Demo coming soon

Try saying

  • place nested families as independent instances
  • extract the nested components as standalone
  • free the nested families from this type

Frank reads plain language — these are starting points, not exact commands.

What Frank needs

  • The parent family type name
  • Instances of it in the active view

Handles point-hosted nested parts, one level deep; additive on rerun.

Watch Frank run this on your model.
