Can't regenerate Family? Help Please

[jvoight]

Hello, I am creating a in place family for a log truss. I made it out of multiple sweeps. When I hit the finish family button I get a message that says:

"Can't regenerate Family Wood Truss. Edit Family to modify it."

What am I doing wrong. Why wont this family finish. I can post screen shots if that would help.

I have a meeting in a few hours and would like to have this feature included.

Thanks JIm

Go back into the Family Editor & try to flex your truss by changing parameters.

Doing it in the Family editor will avoid any complications with the rest of your model.
There's a constraint in the somewhere that can't be satisfied.
Hopefully, you'll be able to see what it doesn't like by expanding the error dialog box & picking "Show."

Dave, Thanks for the suggestions. But this family was created in place and does not have any parameters. Here are the screen shots.

I suggest editing the in place family, and delete one 'piece' and then try to finish the family. Repeat until you find the offending piece, then undo back to restore everything and try to fix the piece causing the error.
