    Default How To Remove Flip Controls

    I have created a simple speciality equipment family with a couple of flip controls. The flip controls are not acting correctly so I select edit family to try to remove them and I they will not delete from my family. Does anyone know how to remove them short of recreating the family? Thanks in advance for any help!!!

    You should be able to select them and delete. I haven't run into any that I couldn't.

    There are a few that you can't delete. They tend to be in your elevations and as far as I know you can't delete them. There are a few things in the Revit families that you can't delete for some odd reason. I'm not sure why it has been set like this but hopefully they will change this in the near future.

    Have you tried opening the family outside the project, remove controls and then re-load it back into your project? When you make changes to families you have to re-load them into your projects otherwise the old version will remain. Revit will prompt you that a family already exists and do you want to replace. Beware that you don't replace families you don't want to change.
