hi can tell me what this message means when they select a border in a family to make a route extrusion? "a chain of circular references was defined among the highlighted elements. " how can you avoid this locking and be able to proceed? Thank you.

Forgive me, but what's the matter with your question? :confused:
Was it bad for you to open your own?

normally this error is reported when an element (also "linked" with other elements, through logical operators) determines a "loop" (circular reference) that does not have/from result.
In practice, starting from a certain value, I can define a "relation" to determine the value (certain) of the unknown. if the determination of the "certain value" in relation to the unknown, then the "chain of circular references" is formed.
example:
correct references

b= 2a
c= 3b
circular reference chain (not correct)
a = 1/6
b=2a
C=3b
determines a "loop" without logical solution

I thank you for the clarification but I do not understand how to overcome this inconvenience in revit. having to make an extrusion on path, after selecting the path (spigoli) and the profile to be extruded gives me the message as above: "a chain of circular references has been defined among the highlighted elements." I must if anything give up a complete path and use edge after edge.
 
... it is difficult to evaluate without seeing the object, however, according to your statements, I do not know that the "path" is selected by clicking on the existing segment (or multiple segments by pressing the ctrl key) and not on the edges ...
