Error creating a panel of curtain wall

Anonymous

Hi!

I've created a family of panel of curtain wall for an specific design, imported to the proyect, but when i try to modify the curtain wall and choose my design, an error appears. Translated to english is something similar to " the parameter of type can't point/handle the type itself".

The wall has the same measurements than the family. Related to this, the family weights 3mb, I don't know if it's too much for a family.

Does someone know the reason?

Thanks in advance.

Regards

Javier

I think this is really heavy stuff for the curtain wall to compute. All those tiny voids- its a lot. Try this: open the family and copy the geometry to clipboard. Paste it to another family which is made using a different family template (start with generic model family template). So, create a generic model but with fixed dimensions (not parametric). Load that to project and see if it works.

It works! 

Yep, you were right, the model has to much geometry.

Thanks you!
