In this course, Brian DeYoung from SOM will show you how to work with custom families and parameters in Revit 2016.

The panel, when we throw this into the project, is actually much, much more narrow than this, but it shouldn't matter because there's nothing horizontally that would prevent this panel from becoming skinnier. So I'm going to go ahead and save this to my desktop and will call it "Gallery Panel," and this is going to end up being the bottom of the gallery panels.

Now, just to make sure that we don't have any strange things happen, I'm not actually going to load this panel that I just created. I'm going to load the panel that I created ahead of time because I know for a fact that that one works. And so what I'm going to do is load the panels that I created previously. And so I'm going to go to Insert, load family to my desktop Dropbox, Exercise six and seven, Completed Curtain Panels. And I'm going to load all of these gallery panels, all four of them, you can see there's four different gallery panels, and say "Open." There we go. And so all four of those panels are now loaded.

And so we go to Level 2 and we're going to create another curtain wall. And so we're going to take this base curtain panel wall and we're going to duplicate it. And we're going to call this "Gallery Wall Bottom". And then in here, we're going to tell it to use the gallery panel bottom panel, which is this guy. Now the spacing between these is much more narrow, so I'm just going to make it two feet. And then we will place these guys in here, and it actually goes all the way out to this end right here. I'm on the second level and there is the panel.

Now let's cut a section through there and make sure that it's properly located. And so the floor's getting in the way here, so I'm just going to click on those things and say "hide in view". So it's not quite in the right spot so I'm going to click the wall and just use the move command and slide it back at 1 inch. And so now you can see that this glass sort of skylight-ish thing is now properly connected. It's a little difficult to see but it's properly connected to the panel below. Now, another thing about this is that the end panels here are different than all the rest of the panels in the middle. And that's why I created another panel, which if I scroll down here to curtain panels, you can see I created one that's called "gallery panel bottom end." That's the panel that goes into the ends.

But once you do that, what you're going to do is go back into the modern wing model. And if I go to the 3-D view, what you're going to do is split this wall. And using the Split tool, you're going to Modify, Split. And I'm just going to click a spot here and split it in two. And then we're going to create another wall type, duplicate, and this is going to be called Bottom End. And then we swap it out for that bottom end panel, and it's going the wrong direction. And this goes back to what I was originally talking about, about how you draw the wall can determine what is left and what is right. Well, to flip this panel around, all I have to do is flip the wall around, like so. Now, it flips the panel out and backwards, but all we have to do is use this Flip tool right here, and now I can move this back into position.

So now, we have an end panel that's different from all the rest, and you do the same thing on the other side. I'm just going skip ahead to the completed modern wing project and show you what the completed wall looks like and explain how I finished it. So let's save this file, close this. And so this is what it looks like when it's done in all three bays. So let's right-click on one of these trees, say "Hide in View" by Category. And then it has all the regular panels in the middle. And then up here, these panels are actually very, very similar to the panels down below, except essentially they're sort of upside down.

So because they're similar, but pretty radically different in terms of where things are and all that kind of stuff, I just made it as a completely separate independent panel. Now, it was kind of a tricky kind of surgery to do on the panel, but I managed to do it without having to completely redesign and rebuild the entire panel. I just kind of shifted things around and made sure all the reference planes moved with it.

And then I just basically created a wall using that particular curtain panel for the top and then I created an end panel version of the top, as you can see here, and then put that into place in one bay. And then actually what I did is I put all of that into a group and then just copied that group over into the other two bays. And so now, if any changes have to be made to this, I just edit the group, I edit whatever needs to be edited, and then click finish, and the other two bays update because these three bays are exactly identical.
