I am new member, new to Revit and have a lot of questions. Here is one of them: I am trying to edit and create family types (in this case a countertop with lavitories). When I choose properties > type properties > Preview > there is no image in the interactive viewing pane no mater what view I choose. Is there a setting somewhere that I need to select? Help!

Since you are in your family, you don't need or have a preview - just look at it in plan elevation or 3d.

Also, is it a custom countertop? Either way, there are already families done by other people that you can easily modify available for download from the Downloads section of revitcity. Rule #1 in Family creation: does the family already exist somewhere else? Rule #2: do I trust the person that made the family if it does already exist... >.> That's of course, only if you get past "Does it need to be modeled"

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is never get involved in a land war in asia, but only slightly less well known is this! Never go in against a Sicilian when death is on the line! |
