Families wont load properly

Hi,

I am working with generic wall based families on revit.

The families are made of solid extrusions & void extrusions and all elements locked with reference lines/surfaces and later grouped together.

 

When I load these families to a project, it does not load properly.. Am I doing something wrong while creating this? Cause there are no instance parameters or anything that I am changing in the projects..

I think the details are only visible in fine mode. Try to set your detail level of the view on fine.

No.. I tried that - the family is distorting after loading it..

Might have something to do with the several groups? 

 

I tried to load the family inside a project, same behaviour you encounter ( very thick plate and the braille on the wrong side etc)

 

I then ungrouped 3 model groups and then reloaded it into the project. Seems to work!

The problem is, Base height of the family is an instance parameter & if I don't group them, then they all move differently... Is there a way to get around that problem?

Maybe try nesting.

Create each bit of text as its own family and load into this family, you will probably have more control then.

Your family is unwieldy, over-constrained and improperly constrained, and way too big at 1452 KB.  

 

One of the main problems I see with the family is you have a lot of very, very small sketch line segments.  Why aren't you using Model Text?  

 

See attached Revit file.  I think it may help you.

I tried using model text but the font to be used distorts the text completely.

Okay, so for that text (Arabic?), I'd model it in a separate family and nest it into the placard host family, and then align and lock to x & y Ref. Planes intersection.  Avoid all the grouping you got going on too.  Align and lock all geometry (and nested families) in the host to Ref. Lines driven by labeled dimensions or locked in place with dimensions.
