Our company is currently transitioning into Revit 2017 and making our HVAC Fabrication Database compatible with it. Our only issue is making sure specific Revit families convert to specific parts using button mapping; so if the system was designed by an engineer with short radius elbows versus full radius, the system converts cleanly with minimal amounts of gaps and failed conversions.
I tried to do this following these instructions:
http://help.autodesk.com/view/RVT/2017/ENU/?guid=GUID-DD4BE206-56AE-41AC-AB56-2AC9B8FB62C0
Only to get the Revit warning "Not all parts were converted. Check the fabrication service definition."
After playing around with it, it seems I'm limited to the default, generic design line button codes (Bend, Offset, RedInline etc) as it's the only way Revit will convert the fittings successfully.
Is this the case? Does the custom mapping only work for specific types of Revit families or am I missing something?
