Revit profiles (model-in-place)?

Whether it is via model-in-place or a family template... I am trying to make a sweep but I have no profiles and can not figure out where they are stored. I have searched through all my libraries and I am finding a profile-folder, but this only contains structural profiles (walls, columns etc). As an example, I am wanting to create a custom handle on a custom kitchen cabinet. I have installed custom content for Revit 2019, 2023 and 2024.

Hi,

 

You can find the (Metric) Profile.rft in the main folder for this purpose. I attached it for you (R2022 version).

A bit hard to explain what I mean. I am creating a sweep and I want to load a profile, that be a square, a round railing type profile or whatever else. I know I can make my own profiles by creating the sketch for it, but it would be nice to have the Revit ones to make it a bit easier. Like in this picture, I created an easy profile using a circle. Again, sorry, a bit hard to explain what I mean.

I don't know if there are any examples you can download, but with the Profile family, you can create a custom profile (parametric) and load into your project.

If you want out of the box profile, you can click on the load Autodesk family. You need 2022 and above to have this feature.
