When I nest a particular family (child.rfa) into another family (parent.rfa), parent.rfa doesn't render correctly when inserted into a project. Note that child.rfa has nested families that are scaled, and that seems to be an issue. Please confirm.
Some of the components don't have a material assigned to them.
....You meant "Render" as in a photo-realistic image; right?
Thanks for the quick response, but I should have been more clear: the nested families in child.rfa are not scaled correctly. See screenshot: the partitions, among other things, should not have gaps. I have another example where mirrored nested objects aren't mirrored.
I'm am not having issues mirroring child at my end. Perhaps you can provide a workflow to follow, and I'll work through your steps and see if something happens.
Clarification: there aren't nested mirrored family issues in the attached example.
Are you seeing the toilet partition gaps when loading the attached example in a project? Note that if you double-click on it to edit it, you won't see the gaps in the family file.
Can you send me a screenshot of the project file into which you inserted parent.rfa and the project file itself?
Thanks! Chuck
Below is what i see when I loaded it in a new project. All screwy.
Stop making every level of nested families Shared. Only share the root level and it should fix your problem. See attached file.
Interesting. Loads fine here. Mirrors fine here. Both Child and Parent. R2018.
I think I need to share families at the lower levels so that they show up as nested blocks when I export to AutoCAD (I know...AutoCAD).
Per the post header, 2016/2017. If it works in 2018, then I know it's not a problem with our programmatic model creation. Thanks!
Work fine in R2017.
Load child.rfa first, and then the parent.rfa. Parent looks fine. Mirrors fine. Export out from project.
No joy in loading child then parent. Again, no worries since it seems to work in 2018...
Thanks! Chuck
Like I said, I have no issues with the family in R2017 or 2018 -- no matter how I load it into the project. Odd, since both you and Toan are. Anyways, good luck.

As said, you CAN share the lowest level (partition component, door panel, fixture, etc...). But the intermediate levels can be unpredictable sometimes.
