extrusion on local mass path

in revit, with the command 'local mass', it is possible to model, in a sort of extrusion on path, a profile (of known form) that follows a path like that posted?
profile is a family already designed.
I can't find the solution. Mar

the profile could be a circle, a square or a more complex shape, it does not matter.
what I find is that in the 'local mass modelling' can not use a family/profile as in the case of modeling within a family.
that is, in 'local mass model' it seems that the profile to be extruded can only be drawn, while using 'new family' the profile to be extruded can be drawn or exercising a profile/family.

But here we are in the 'local mass modelling'

But here we are in the 'local mass modelling' so you are trying to make for example a cover to a wall.


in other words, to make with revit a cover (sheet box) on the wall above how do you do it?

(but where did the command go to re-edit a post? )
 
I'm afraid you're messing up. Although in-place modeling we are talking, an account is shaping a mass, an account is shaping a wall! are two completely different things in revit, which have different functions.

So the cover on the wall as we put it?
Mar
 
We put it if your local model is a wall, not a mass!
So let's summarize... I don't understand anything... .
I have a building whose walls of moth at the top, although having forms "say baroque", must be covered with a scossaline.
the walls are walls, their shape was embroidered with the command [modifica profilo].
So now how do you do it?
Mar
 
I'm sorry. I don't understand anything. Are you leaving saying that you are shaping a local mass and now it turns out that you have walls (system families) edited in the profile?? What about the local mass then? ?
However, you cannot apply wall extrusions on a wall with "modified" profile.

...because modeling with local mass a profile/scossine that follows a twisty path/tractor, not straight, could be, in my opinion, a way to get a cover that decorates a facade as, being the walls edited in the profile, it is not possible to apply profiles/scosins or frames in other way... .
and now it turns out that you have walls (system families) edited in the profile? ?
to say the truth....the walls (system families) edited in the profile are always existed, they are those (see image attached in the application presentation post) that should be covered by a profile/scosine/frame
What about the local mass then? ?
....if not local mass as you do...... ?

However, you cannot apply wall extrusions on a wall with "modified" profile.
right.... so let's go back to head, put a profile/scoss/frame
in a building with a winding trend it would seem that revit allows it only through the local mass commands........
