Layers change when importing sketchup families to Revit

[Anonymous]

I have been using Sketchup Families for a Revit Project by re-defining all Layers in the skp family project first then importing to Revit to be able to re-apply all materials in revit as the standard known workflow. the issue is, whenever I do so and make sure all layers I need are defined, when importing to Revit and apply the needed materials some of the materials doesnt show. I use object styles tab in Revit to change materials for imported families. When going to imported Families Tab you can see all layers are moved and saved as I wanted but changes are not made in the model. the material layers are messed up in many cases. Kindly advise.

Attached is a photo of the SKP family and another for the Revit Family after applying Materials. You can see theyre not the same.

... the revit shot is from Enscape

.... maybe is enscape who is changing the textures?

Am using Revit 19. I saw the link before and it didnt solve the issue as I believe I considered every info. in the link.

If u look again in the photos I sent, the black tray holding the cups and bottles next to the coffee machine should be wood as in the sketchup version, and also the cups and the bottle in the tray, u can see that the bottle is black where in the sketchup file is glass white, I noticed that these parts in revit that havnt changed are all on a white layer. I havnt assigned any white layers. its like Revit cant read these parts or something for some reason. Please see white parts in the coffee machine, the tray next to it and bottle on top of it in the attached photo.

... I got you, I understand

... but why are you importing these sketchup families into revit and making such a complex situation

... those are pretty basic families that are easy and fast to make in REVIT

The layers in the Imported family category are for ALL families loaded in the project.  If you happen to have two different families, both have layer X, then when you load them in the project, there is only one layer X, and only one material can be assigned to that layer. 

Are you sure this is not the case?
