Base Plate Shear Anchor Configuration

[jasonmccool8686]

I'm trying to add a shear lug to a column base plate steel connection in Revit 2021. The shear lug (or "shear anchor" in the dialog box) needs to be a 1 3/4" x 6" deep x 15" wide plate across a 15" wide base plate. I have that added in without issue. However, the connection also includes a longitudinal plate that would be parallel to my shear load and therefore useless. It still shows up even with the thickness set to zero. If I try zeroing out the width or depth of the unwanted plate, it breaks the entire connection. Any suggestions?

it can't be smaller then 1 (mm)

Good idea. That works. It still wants to show the little square of unwanted plate in my plan view detail, but it's not too noticeable. The other option I tried was breaking the connection and manually deleting the unwanted plate, but I was wanting to use this configuration at multiple locations and have any changes propagate across all of them if needed, so yours is a better solution. Thanks!
