	ParametersOrder order

Parameters

order ParametersOrder: The desired sort order.

Exceptions

Exception	Condition
InvalidOperationException	Thrown when this family is a Rebar Shape family which doesn't support parameters reorder.

Parameters that belong to different groups will remain separated, and the groups' order will not be affected.

The sort is a one-time operation and when new parameters are added they will not be automatically sorted.

private void DisplayParametersInAscendingOrder(Document familyDoc)
{
    FamilyManager familyManager = familyDoc.FamilyManager;
    familyManager.SortParameters(ParametersOrder.Ascending);
}

    Dim familyManager As FamilyManager = familyDoc.FamilyManager
    familyManager.SortParameters(ParametersOrder.Ascending)
