Ifc Format to get the geometry and the data of it and you lose the ability to edit to like a native Revit family.

@Tulasinath_Reddy
There are certain objects in Revit (stairs, railings, curtain walls…) that can’t be transferred into Rhino and VisualARQ as parametric objects through Rhino.Inside or IFC. There are not enough common properties (or components in GH) to reconstruct every single part of a stair family in Revit into a VisualARQ stair style via IFC or Rhino.Inside.

And neither in the other way around.

All you can do is to send the geometry with data attached (the object type (ifcStair), and the shared parameters/custom parameters/ifc properties).

You will be able to edit the data attached to that object in Rhino/VisualARQ, but none of them will affect the dimensions of the object.
