i put a custom steel truss into Revit Architecture? I have already made the
truss and saved it as an rfa, I just can't seem to bring it in as component.
Any suggestions?

time I checked, a Revit Structure Truss family doesn't work in
Architecture. erahn103: I assume you are trying to load in an object such as
this one

You will notice that under each of the RFA files that it notes Revit
Structure. This means that you cannot use these Truss families inside of
Architecture. It's a shortfall in Architecture that needs correcting. Edited

you're going to have to enlighten us as to how you are achieving this, because
while you CAN load a Revit Structure Truss family into Revit Architecture,
using the Beam tool or dragging from the Project Browser does NOT get the
object into the project workspace. I just tried this again for a second time.
So please do explain how you are doing this? Edited by: cgsmith on May 21,

Is there an update to Architecture 2010 to enable the truss feature yet? Do we need subscription services to get it?
You can place truss family elements in Revit 2011 and 2012.
