I have been having this problem off and on since I began this process of creating a fleet of small structures. When I create a project of a small shed/cabin/studio (foundation, walls, roof, and framing) I intend to duplicate it and set each one to a different roof pitch (shed roof profile).
During my first attempts, I found that having locks and pins on the structure (using floor plan view) caused problems translating everything, especially the framing. It didn't seem to matter whether I selected-all and then copy-moved or grouped then create-similar. Once the locks & pins came off, no problems.
After success with this process several times for a variety of structure dimensions, I began to experiment with roof framing of the shed roof profile to see if I could further streamline the reproduction. After finding that this was inefficient for my purposes, I returned the top plates to level with idea of modifying the roofs individually.
Now, I have the same issues with duplicating this simple structure all over again. Here are pictures of the problem-instances:
a) Ungrouped - Copy/Move
b) Grouped - Create/Similar
It seems that Revit is made for this sort of precise, parametric reproduction of instances across projects. So, as weird as this is to me, I must be doing something wrong because this should be routine function.
Any ideas, insight, suggestions as to what is going wrong here?
Thanks again, helpful people!
