Hi!
Can you show me how to setup integers so i can have two elements occupying the same space in a family however they can't both be visible at the same time?
Regards
Owjan

If you are using Revit 7.0, it is quite simple using the new <family type> parameter and nested families.
The two elements need to have the same origin point and defined in the same manner.
In your family types-->add Parameter-->Select the type to be family type-->Then select the correct category of the nested family. Name and group where you want.
Then select the element-->Properties-->at the bottom select label and change it to your newly created parameter.
You can now select between the two different elements...

Hello mr Spot
I send you a little more information and elucidation on what I mean and my problems.
I want to be able to chose between to have threshold or not plus which type of threshold I want to have. Look at the attached file.
Furthermore here's some questions.
How and where do I create these new elementens?
Are there own/separate families or made in the same family?
Thank you for your help

Here is an example door family where i've used this tool to make door handles interchangeable as well as turn off there visibilty.
See if you can break it down to work out how to do it.
Let me know how you go.

First open the door family, then go for solid>>>extrusion(in 3d view). Select pick a plane and select the inner side of the door. Then go to left or right elevation (depends which side u have picked the plane). Draw the profile of your threshold. Give the extrusion thickness to some 1'. Then go to exterior view. Align your threshold to the other inner end of the door and lock it.
Load it into ur project. If u increase the width the door the threshold automatically increases.

I am not certainly if your last insert/answer was meant for me.
I have no problems with that draw in threshold, but i'd like to swap them depending of the door.
