Revit :: How To Assign Desired Scale Of Plan On One Sheet Without Affecting The Scale On Other Sheets

Sep 2, 2012

I have a floor plan with a very long footprint in a "View" drawn at a convenient scale.

The long building had to be broken to be put on several different "Sheets", and each of the floor plans on each of the sheet has a scale.
When I change the scale of the partial plan on one "Sheet", all the other sheets also change to the same scale and also the original view changes to the new scale.

Is there a way to assign the desired scale of the plan on one sheet without affecting the scale on the other sheets and on the original drawing view?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Drawing Scale With ILogic Upon Parameter Change

Jul 8, 2013

I have a spreadsheet and iLogic driven mater assy to generate different iterations.

I would like to change the scale of a base view on a drawing based on a parameter in my assembly. The idea is to get iLogic to change the view using a simple If / Else statement.

This is what I tried:

If Parameter("0 Generic Assembly v2.2.iam.BP") < 1570 Then
ActiveSheet.View("VIEW1").Scale = 1/8
Else
ActiveSheet.View("VIEW1").Scale = 1/10
EndIf

So basically the value of "BP" parameter (excel parameter in my assy) would drive the scale of the views. But its not working. Is it actually a sensible method? Can I use in the drawing environment the excel parameters in my assembly?

This is the error message I get when the rule is run:

"Error in rule: View Scale, in document: 0 Generic Assembly v2.2.idw

Unspecified error (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004005 (E_FAIL))" 

Also using the same thinking I use iLogic to populate the drg number field on the drawing based on an excel parameter. The rule works but does not always updates the drawing no upon the parameter change or update/rebuild commands.

AutoCad 2D :: When Change Scale On Object Property Mleader Arrow Head Didn't Change Size

Mleader arrow head didn't change size when change the scale on Object property?

The Arrow head size didn't change corresponding to the scale, i included the pic below, the top picture, the arrow head was set at .18" but was really small when i plot out, so i wanted to make it bigger, when i changed to .50" or .75" or even 1" the arrow head became even smaller than .18". Only when .18" than the arrow side is legible

Revit :: Printing To Scale

Apr 1, 2008

When I print in revit - at scale - 100% Zoom, I check it with an architecture scale and its off. For example, 25' - 0" in the revit file measured with a scale on paper is 23 ' 10". etc... Is it a revit issue, or a printer driver issue?

Revit :: How To Scale 3D On The Sheet

Nov 22, 2012

I notice that a 3D view on a Sheet, when the view is "activated" and with the crops regions on, can be reshaped, but I do not see a way to make what is shown on the view a tad "larger" (i.e., bigger, like zooming in). (I have tried, but I might be missing something?)

I wonder if there is way to scale a 3D on the sheet, to make the "scale" of only one of the 3D's larger on this sheet (without affecting the scale of the other views on the Sheet). Is this possible?

Revit :: Key Plan At A Very Small Scale?

Jun 17, 2013

Question #1: To my Sections Sheet, I am adding a Key Plan of each floor to show where the sections are cut.  I duplicated a plan of each floor and renamed it "Floor # - Key Plan", and added the view to the Sections Sheet at a small scale, and now I am using a 1" = 80'-" scale for these key plans.   I am able to hide all the unwanted annotations elements, but I notice that some like the "UP" and "DN" of stairs, which are very large, do not go away without erasing the stairs also. 

How can I leave the stairs at this small scale but without the associated annotation?

(I also notice that this happens with elements like Washer (W), the Water Heater (WH), etc).
 
Question # 2. Related question: Do Revit has a "Key Plan" creation fuction to automate this work?

Revit :: Scale In Sheet List

Dec 19, 2011

Today I adjusted our title block. Scale is automated by the scale view of the views placed. It becomes 'as indicated' is multiple scale are used. No problem, that part I can live with (/ workaround).
 
Sadly the scale doesn't appear on a sheet list schedule. Which surprises me . With revit 2012 I was wondering: I am wrong? If not: do you have a nice workaround which doesn't mean I have to manually input it.

Revit :: How To Read View Scale

Sep 4, 2013

I am doing a generic annotation with several rows of text, but I need to read the view scale in the project to set the spacing between the rows of text. My idea is to create a parameter that will be multiplied by the scale factor in the view.

Revit :: View Title Half Scale

Jan 23, 2012

I have a view title where I want to show Full scale and half scale on the same view title. Please see attached .rfa file.
 
Is there a way to have a label return a half size automatically in an effort to have only one view title. Otherwise our current work around is to make each view title for each scale and create a viewport for each scale in our template. I have heard that the labels are hardcoded and cannot be changed.

Revit :: Scale DWG Inside A Block With Parameters

Are there any neat tricks to scaling a DWG inside a block with parameters?  I would assign a scale factor parameter to Instance Scale but as I can't I'm looking for a workaround.  

I have a some 2D elevation trees that I want in my 3D tree block and alI just want to control the height.  The problem is that if I explode the DWG in a family everything just disappears .

Revit :: Printing Sheets To Scale In Arch D

Jul 9, 2013

I am using the student version of Revit and have desparately been trying to create a document that would print to scale. I use PDF creator to convert Revit to pdf, but it always comes messed up by an inch or so...insted of 4.6, it prints 4.75 (or the other way around). I tried formating my title block in many different ways, including deleting the outer lines. Nothing works. There is no Arch D format in the family of titleblocks. I am a complete beginner, just started using Revit a couple months ago, with no knowledge of CAD or anything similar. When I look at the PDF creator page of my doc, it shows that the doc has been properly sized, but when the print place prints it out, it is off by 1" or so.
 
How do I format my sheet so it prints to scale in format 24" X36"?

Revit :: Printing A Model File To Scale

Aug 3, 2012

Can you print a model file to scale without setting up a view with a scale?  Like in Autocad, you could print the model space to a certain scale within the page setup manager.  Does revit have anything like that?  Or do I have to set up a sheet view prior to printing anything?

Revit :: Architecture Not Printing Documents To Scale

Aug 13, 2013

I just recently noticed that when I print documents from Revit Architecture, they are printing smaller than the scale size they are set to. I verified with a couple of different scale settings against a good old fashioned scale ruler. It seems to be consistently incorrect.

Revit :: Print Part Of A View To Scale For Collaboration?

Jan 31, 2013

Is it possible to print a view or part of a view to scale for collaboration without first putting the view on a sheet?  Thinking about preliminaries, when working with students.  Its easy, in autocad, to print anything to scale regardless of whether views are on sheets. Is there a similar capability in Revit?  All I can find is zoom scale.

Revit :: Approach For Large Scale Housing Masterplan Model

Nov 11, 2013

We're putting together a large scale (2000+) development of various housing types. These are modular units, and there is a lot of repetition (obviously). In all there are probably 6 main types, each of which has mirrored alternatives. Whilst the houses are identical, the individual plots do vary to respond to topography and the infrastrucural layout.
 
What is the best way of organising this in Revit ?Ideally we would like to schedule the types, walls, roofs as well as the ground works for each. I am not sure what the best approach to this will be.
 
Initially I had tried setting up a few house types as 'groups' then using individual building pads for each plot - this does not lend itself to scheduling overall numbers though.
 
I had also thought about modelling the house types as a separate file, and linking them into the masterplan, duplicating as necessary (not sure how this will work re. mirroring though). The level of detail needed in the masterplan isn't as detailed, so long as the external / internal plan is visually correct (annotations and drawings for individual houses can be kept in the relevant house type Revit file).
 
I'm still not sure that the linked model approach will allow scheduling though ?
 
We would really want to schedule the numbers of overall house types, as well as totals for materials (although that could be extrapolated from number of plots * materials for each type).I'm also concerned over file size and performance. 2000+ houses in the single model is likely to be a pretty big hit.

AutoCad :: Change Scale From 1:1 To 1:100

Dec 1, 2012

I've completed my drawing in modelspace, scale 1:1. I'm about to set up for plotting in 1:00 scale. I go to layout, pan the image, set scale to 1:100 and lock the viewport. Everything is peachy so far. I also need to have some dims on my drawing, so I go back to paperspace, change the scale from 1:1 to 1:100 and all hell breaks loose and my drawing is left as a mess.

Revit :: How To Build Curtain Wall Panel Family - Scale Proportionally

May 29, 2013

I am trying to build a curtain wall panel family (see attached). I want the extremities of the solids to be glued to the surrounding frame. I want to be able to scale the model inside the frame with different curtain wall panel system sizes. 5'x4', 6'x8' etc... I am having problems with restricted constraints. I do not know what I am doing wrong. the model inside the panel are created from soild extrusions. if I align the solid extrusion from one side of the frame , only that side will grow or shrink with frame, and makes the model look weird. I tried to group the solids with reference lines in them glued to the reference line grid i created in the panel and that did not work. I want to be to scale proportionally the model inside the panel.
