Is there a way to turn off the analytical lines for a truss and a slab?  I have some that are in the model for section puposes only.  I do not want the members to transfer form REVIT to the analysis software.

I know that beams can be turned off by going through Properties > Structural Analysis > Analyze As > and selecting "NOT FOR ANALYSIS".

Walls can be turned off by > Properties > Analytical Model > UNCHECK "ENABLE ANALYTICAL MODEL"

I cannot find a way to do this for truss families and slabs.  I am updating the RISA analysis model constantly from REVIT so this needs to be an efficient process.

Thanks

I figured it out.  This was for a cold form roof truss, but others should be similar.

1: Hover over truss and Tab to select individual member of truss family. 

2: Unpin the member

3: Under Properties > Structural Analysis > Change Analyze As from "lateral" to "Not for Analysis"

4: Pin the members.

Trick - when selecting one member do a "select all instances" to spped up the process.
