A big hello to all,

I am new to revit and need to have a floor motif show up in my perspective. My teacher (I take a night class in Miami Dade College only 1 nite a week) said I could take my floor motif and create a family and then it would show up. How do I do this????  Appreciate any feedback I can get.  thx, Eliz,

Since we don't know what your motif is, we can only give some suggestions:

1. If it is a jpg image, you can apply it to your floor as a decal and it will show up when rendered but only then.  Read your HELP on decal.  Use the help search feature or index - decal.
2. If it is a material, you can assign it to your floor but it too will only show when rendered.
3. If you want to do it just as linework, you can do it using model lines.  That will show up in model views but it may be lost in rendered views.
