Hi @hardhiraf , I just use a cuboid to create a family type. Cuboid-FamilyType It can get a cube icon here. I think this icon may be lost in Revit 2022.

hardhiraf commented 3 years ago

Thank you for your reply. But in my case, not just the icon, the family type was also not created.

If I create Family Instance from the Family Type in Dynamo DYN

This is what it looks like in Revit 2021 RVT 2021 as you see, there is icon and family instance was created

and this is in Revit 2022 RVT 2022 there is no icon and family instance was not created

Hi @hardhiraf , sorry for late response. Cuboid-FamilyInstance

I use a simple solid can't reproduce your issue. If it is convenient, could you please share your file so that I can reproduce your problem.

hardhiraf commented 3 years ago

Thank you @ZiyunShang, This is my file FG SOLID.zip

ZiyunShang commented 3 years ago

Hi @hardhiraf , the main reason for this issue is the change of Revit API - "Document.Import". Your SAT file was imported into Revit as Solid Geometry before 2022, but in 2022 it is imported not as Solid Geometry, but as Mesh.

We are seeking the help of the owner of this API to confirm whether this change is reasonable.

Hi @ZiyunShang, thanks for the help. Maybe I'll close this issue if there is an answer from the owner of that API. I'll be waiting. Thanks again!

hardhiraf commented 3 years ago

Hi @ZiyunShang any update on this issue?

ZiyunShang commented 3 years ago

Hi @ZiyunShang any update on this issue?

No, I have created problem report to the Revit API owner, but it hasn't been solved.

hardhiraf commented 3 years ago

Okay, thank you for your response.

Hey, I tried to describe the problem in following thread and am hoping for finding a workaround to sort this problem out. I'm primarily a programmer and am not that much experienced in Revit. I'd appreciate support or further information on that forum to hopefully drive attention to it.

I didn't find link to the issue on the Revit API owner mentioned by @ZiyunShang so couldn't link or 👍 it.
