I tried to search for this topic and wasn't able to find a perfect solution.

The question is:

How do you trace or pick the spline imported from AutoCAD?  Thanks in advance.

Create the Spline in Autocad, then import that spline file to Revit, pick in that, in the options bar you have "Full Explode" button, pick in that then you can "play" with your spline....

Sorry, another question.

After the full explode, how come I can't pick it anymore when I tried to create a wall?

Because Revit don't allow to create wall with a spline, you don't have that option like you can see in the image attached, if you want tho create a wall to follow the spline then use the "create in Place" in the category "Walls" and create and extrusion with that shape OR create a Mass then Apply Wall by face...

If you are using the geometry to create something like say...a slab edge...you can import the cad drawing while in the slab creation mode and it will automatically pick it.

Cool man.  It works again.

So the trick is to create a mass of the spline line from AutoCAD.  Then create the wall off the face of the mass.

Thanks once again.
