Good morning. I do not know how to change the material of this structure. Can anyone help me? I have realized this structure with metric curtain panel pattern based families. Thank you.

Here you go. You just have to edit the this generic model

Then add material parameter

Thank you @syman2000. Can you help me with this? These diagonal beams, indicated with the arrow in red, are rotated 45° on their axis. They should be on the same level as the other beams.

In addition, the correct position of the truss is this (green), but in the file it is upside down. I have a hard time giving it the right direction.

I would simply remove these original brace

Add new reference line and then host Famiglia11 to those lines

Create form and you will get those brace align straight

Thank you @syman2000 ! How long do you think it takes to learn to master these commands well? I've been using Revit for about 10 months, but I never feel like I know how to master it. And also for many aspects of the program, such as families, they are still at the initial level. I am self-taught.

It is hard to learn these unless you diligently apply this to day to day work. Even I am not fully master everything parametric for adaptive. So I learn it by practicing and seek out the webinar from other industry expert.
