Can I change the profile of a cable tray?

[BalajiHTI]

I am trying to edit a cable tray but it is a system family. While I can edit the profiles of Cable Tray Fittings, I can not edit the profile of the Cable Tray itself. Is there any way to achieve this?

One more question, is there any way to apply insulation on selective sides of the Duct Elements?

You cannot. Once cannot modify the profile of Cable Tray (or Conduit, Ducts, etc.) beyond changing the size within the Project. The Profile is fixed to a rectangular shape.

I don't believe that's possible, either.

If you are encountering issues which you would like to see addressed, or simply have a need for some functionality that Revit does not possess, I would recommend using the link below (which is frequently provided by Autodesk Support personnel) to submit feedback. Be sure to provide details and even examples.
