Hello,

I am trying to create a steel truss.  I have two sloped beams for the top and a flat beam for the bottom, col's for the verticals. When I place the diagonals I get errors.  Is there a minimum length Revit allows for beams?  I set reference planes  to get my angles correct but can not get the correct length. The instance properties for length are greyed out.  I am using RA 2010.  Thanks for any suggestions.
