    Default creating a tee

    Hello
    I'm learining to create revit families. I made a tee. However in my tee it is possible to have higher branch than the hight of the tee. What am I doing wrong?

    The simplest answer is because the heights of the different sections are decided by 2 different parameters, If you set both heights to the same parameter then they will match.

    If I'm honest i probably wouldn't use sweeps to make that family. You could pretty simply use an extrusion in the Tee shape and set the depth as the height parameter you want.

    Yes, I used 2 different parameters, bacause I want to have possibility to change a hight of second section. eg I would like to have a tee 300x300 with a branch 200x200.
    If I use extrusion hight of the branch will be the same as hight of the tee, am I correct?
