Part Weight Source Parameter
- Default radio button -for fabrication parts, the built-in parameter for weight is used. For RFAs (Revit Families), the parameter eV_Weight is used.
- Custom radio button - specifies a parameter containing the element's weight. The parameter must be of the Mass type.
Estimate Point Load Target Parameter
