    Default New Duct Fitting template: is there one?

    I want to create a new duct fitting, but when i start a new family i find that there is no 'duct fitting' template as such. Anyway, I used the 'Mechanical Equipment' template but this means that when I load the family into a project, it becomes listed under the 'Mechanical Equipment' items and not under 'Duct Fittings'.

    Is there a duct fitting template? Or is there quick a way to change the category of a family so that it will list under a different category i.e. the duct fitting items?

    Thanks for any help,
    Bren.

    While in the family editor you can go to Settings/Family Categories and Parameters and you should be able to change it to the Duct Fitting category. I don't have a copy of MEP so I can't tell you if there's a template you're not seeing.

    Yes!! Thankyou Dimitri,
    That was exactly what i needed. I've changed the family category now and reloaded it into my project. It now comes under duct fittings.

    Cheers,
    Bren.
