Ideally this would also include changing the orientation of the family too. Example: changing a faced based electrical wall panel, which is modeled horizontally, to the vertical position and make it un-hosted.
It would be really cool to change the host of an existing family. For example: transform wall-based(ceiling...) families in face-based family. Or even in non-hosted families
All I want is to be able to Copy/Monitor every single category. When I convert my Casework family into a Light Fixtures family, I lose all the subcategories that I've assigned.
Okay, so what I did yesterday to convert my casework families:
I nested my wall-hosted casework inside of a wall-hosted light fixture family.
I loaded the light fixture outer family into a small dummy project
I loaded that project into an empty project
I used copy/monitor to convert my outer light fixture family to a face-hosted family
The nested casework families were also converted to face-hosted.
The common wisdom here is to convert your casework families directly to light fixtures, but then you lose the subcategory assignments of the family elements. Using casework families nested inside a light fixture family, the casework families kept their subcategory assignments.
