Gutter profiles

Hi,

I'm trying to load a rounded gutter profile (Gutter Section (1)) from the Metric Detail Library the to use as a Hosted Sweep - Roof Gutter. Although it loads into the project and can be seen in the project browser, it does not become available in the drop down selector for profiles within the Gutter family.

Any help greatlly appreciated.

While in the Gutter Sweep tool, go into properties and Edit/New. This is
where you assign the desired profile to the gutter type.

This is what I've been trying to do. However the problem is that I seem to be stuck with the options hardwired into the System Family: Gutter. Rather than creating a new gutter profile, I want to use a gutter profile from the Metric Library which is now loaded into the project, but refuses to show in the profile drop down when using the Host Sweep - Roof Gutter tool.

Hope this makes sense

Open the desired profile and check under Settings>Family Category And
Paramenters. Make sure the Profile Usage property is set to Gutter or
, and it should show up in the Profile property of a gutter sweep.
