I don't understand your question. Are you asking how to transfer a customized system family from one project to another? Use Transfer Project Standards on the Manage Tab.

Sorry, 

 

no, I haven't already create it. Want to undrestand how can I do. 

Though to go in curtain wall family and create it but there isn't the family. There is only a "curtain wall panel" family in which it's shown only doors to insert in curtain wall (screenshot 1) and an other "panel curtain wall for theme" in which there are a lot of polygons that I do not undrestand what are the for (screenshot 2). 

I don't undrestand how can I do to create a wood mullion.

Create it from the Family Template: Curtain Wall Panel.rft  --  NOT Curtain Panel Pattern Based.rft

 

FYI: Mullions are created from Profiles -- just like Sweeps

I still don't understand what you are trying to do, @Anonymous.   Your screenshot shows a bunch of loadable families inside a folder named "Curtain Wall Panels".  I have no idea what template was used to create any those families.  

 

Again -- describe for us what you are trying to do.  Be specific. Elaborate.

I want to create a curtain wall with batten for mullion from a new project as in screenshot before, doing it alone, without command transfer paramethers from a project to other  "transfer project standard" for i.e. 

 

Can't undrestand how to create the mullion how to insert in curtain wall.

 

1 - First screenshot: go to family template and create the profile;

2 - Charge in project; 

 

After that can't  go on. Don't undrestand if it right what I did before and don't know how to move on.

 

Hope to be clearer than before. 

 

Thank's.

As I have explained, Mullions are created from 2D "Mullion" Profiles.  If you want a LOADABLE mullion profile family, create the mullion profile using the family template "Profile-Mullion.rft".

Ok, maybe I undrestand. 

 

An other question.

 

1 - create profile;

2 - charge in project;

3- View is in project browser; 

 

After that I have to select a mullion and insert the new profile?

In this way if the mullions are pinned I can't duplicate the default family, right?

To insert the new profile have to unpinned all of these? (creenshot 4 and 5).

 

Thank's
