That darn last 20% though....I keep hoping it is a matter of lack of content and maturity rather than a systematic flaw in the program approach that has to be overcome, and that if we keep adding stuff like curved beams, and tapered girder families, we will be eventually whittle that 20% down. But when I listen to a user like yourself with many more years of Revit experience than I, I get a little worried.
Have you ever spoke with the developers about this? It would be intersting to hear their reply.
Have a great day...
