insert/update the family categories in family templates

Hi, 

 

I faced a huge differences in the different kind of family templates concerning the family categories - see screenshot below:

On the left side you see the generic models face based family template - and the amount and possibility to choose from nearly all categories. 

On the right side, so in the adaptive family template, you immediately see, that there are maybe 50 of the amount just possible - why? 

 

There are also missing some categories - for example: Stairs or also Formwork - Wondering how this is possible because Formwork is also typical for building site and the building construction. 

 

Please update these categories and insert at least the two above mentioned in all family templates, so that we, the family creator/users have more flexibility while creating families. 

 

In my point of view - the best would be to let the user create their own categories here inside the Familycategory and Parameter window - this would give us more flexibility! 

 

Thank you very much!

 

Kind regards

When we see more and more user cases about Bridge modeling, structural truss and framing with adaptive family, from both client side and Autodesk University, we do need to include more categories: Structural Framing, Structural Truss.....!
