I am not sure if I understand your problem right or not, but if you are looking for Ramp slope parameter, You can find it in the edit Type, "Ramp Max Slope (1/x) " The X is the number that will change your ramp slope.

If you find my post is interesting, I will Appreciate it if you give a Kudo.

also if you want the shape of the ramp to be solid you can change it from edit type.

Someone can say me how can I find a new family once I upload in revit? (If upload a new ramp where I find it? In ramp menu there isn't).

Thank's

every single family that has been uploaded to your model is located at your project browser, family. You can find them there. May be the one that you have uploaded is not a ramp family so try to find it in other categories.

Thank's a lot. I've found it.

Last question: when I upload a family it remane on project. Do not charge in my default folders (pic attach), right?

The family will only appear in a folder structure if you save it to that location. Loading a family into the model does not save the file anywhere but within the revit model itself.

Yes but why can't charge a wall for example (att 1)and the window yes instead (att 2)?

So can't use wall different from template I choose as default from list (att 3)? The walls on list depends from model I choose when create the new model (arch, struc or mep?)

Torrenti,

Your wording is a bit confusing. Would you mind restating more simply?

Thank You.

Do not undrestand why can upload windows families from edit type and after load command and not walls or ramps not (attachment 2).

Walls can't be import? USe only those in proprerty list or modify by edit tipe?

For the ramps I can't find a different method that upload a family in proect and than drag the element in project(attachemnt 2).

Hope to be clearer.

Thank's for any answer.

Window and door are loadable families, which you can save to RFA files. Wall, floor, roof, stair, and ramp are system families, which you cannot save to RFA files. For such, you need to use Manage > Transfer Project Standards to bring them from one project to another.

@ToanDN thank's a lot to introduce me in Transfer Project Standards command.

So I open an other file and go to Transfer Project Standards command. But there have to select something called families (attachement 2)? Because there isn't.

Furthermore if checked all voice in list theoretically I shoud have the ramp in new project but there isn't in structure folder as richc have named that.

Re: Miss slope command and type ramp

ToanDN — Mon, 27 Mar 2017 23:12:53 GMT

You open two projects. Go to the target project and run Transfer Project Standards. Check the categories with want to transfer. Example below show Stair Types and Wall Types will be transferred. You cannot just select one Wall type and not the others. ALL of them will be transferred.

Here is the place I should find elements?

Re: Miss slope command and type ramp

ToanDN — Mon, 27 Mar 2017 23:41:00 GMT

Find elements for what?

Re: Miss slope command and type ramp

Example the winowds underline in attach 1 should I find in second project (attach 2) if I use correct procedure?

Re: Miss slope command and type ramp

ToanDN — Mon, 27 Mar 2017 23:49:17 GMT

No. Transfer Project Standards only transfers SYSTEM families: Wall, Floor, Roof, Stair, Ramp.

For loadable RFA families, just open the RFA files and load to the new project. You need to read my previous post more carefully.
