roof edge

[Sbukinuki]

Good morning, everyone.
after viewing the following videohttp://www.youtube.com/watch?gl=br&hl=pt&v=jw9nwcdgjuwI have a question.
when the technician sets the type in grid 1 and 2, revit from the possibility to choose different elements, i.e. I suppose set a priori of the operator according to their needs.
now what I ask you all, is it possible to load in the rectangular mountain family other elements?
in the bookcase there are several logs of roof timber but are not compatible with the roof function - glazed, and you have to use them individually or with the system function of beams that according to my judgment is not manageable as the roof function.
greetings and thanks for any answers.

the command "system of beams" manages, and uses, the beams of the beams, that is families composed of "traves" defined (drawn) in 3 d.

the command "tetto - vetrata" comparable to the "continuous façade" , that from the possibility of drawing of the "grills" to which can then be associated "mountains" uses instead the families of the "profiles", that are families in 2 d , that is drawn by the "section" of the mountaineer, which then, in the project is extruded on the length of the grid (of the glazed).

if you use the second method, you cannot use the families of the beams (3d) but you must use the families of the "profiles" (2d)

is not exactly inherent to your request but I just wrote on my blog an article that can give you interesting ideas.
