Fill region in a Adaptive Generic Model Family

[Anonymous]

Hello, a few questions on some issues I'm having while creating an adaptive family. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

1. Is there a way to create a region (hatch) in an adaptive generic model family.

2.I tried to bring in a symbol family (with a region) into my adaptive generic family and i get the error: "While loading 'PNA_WWT': Can't load generic annotations into families created from the "Pattern Based" template." Is this because I'm trying to add a 2D symbol into a 3D adaptive family?

You can insert a symbol family into a generic model family, then insert the generic model family into an adaptive family.  Still, it's a strange and I am not sure what you are trying to accomplish.  It will not work nicely when you bring the adaptive family in a project because the adaptive portion will , well, adapt, where as the symbol is static.

1. For what purpose are you trying to nest a Filled Region into an Adaptive component? It might be that the solution you are looking for is not a filled region.Example an Adaptive Surface with a surface pattern material applied to it...That would make more sense than nesting a Annotation with a Filled region into an Adaptive Component regardless if it can be loaded in directly or through an agent
2. Yes in Principle you cannot load 2D families into Pattern Based template and not just Annotations, that applies to profiles, Detail items ...etc.

Can I follow up on this topic?

So I created a floor setdown using an adaptive component that cuts to the floor. The issue is that the client wanted these cut to be shaded in the plans. I can't find a way to shade the void that I incorporated in the adaptive component that's why integrating a detail item such as filled region might be needed.
