Hi reviteers, this is my first time on this chat, I have revit 6 demo on my pc and I'm trying to convince my boss to switch from ADT3.3 to Revit 6.
The point is that Revit should offer easy creation of everyday object!
I mean windows (like ADT windows and windows assemblies), doors (ADT like).
Let�s say universal family with
Adjustable with and depth of frames, jambs, seals, sash
Adjustable number, with and depth of muntins in X and Y direction.
I tried to make that family, but it doesn�t work.
Array is very hard to control, because grouped solids (muntins) are loosing ability to be constrained, and I can�t make array with start from second element to one before last one.
THX in advance?

WITH YOUR WINDOW FAMILY I WOULD ADVISE YOU TO PAY VERY CLOE ATTENTION TO YOUR REFERENCE PLANES. I LEARNED THIS THE HARD WAY. ONCE YOU ARE IN CONTROL OF THEM THINGS REALLY START TO COME TOGETHER VERY NICELY.

I don't have problems with reference planes; my window geometrically is simpler than those from libraries. I have problem to make array for window muntins (mullions)

if you're asking if you can not show the first and last objects in an array, you'll probably have to use a workaround. I would make your array, then make a second array with voids. This array should place voids over your first and last array objects.
