I have user that placed some lights on a model and now he can't select groups of lights using crossing. He can select them indivigually. We are using linked models arch, mech, elec ect.. The light he is placing was downloaded off a vendors site, when he placed a revit OTB family he can select it using crossing fine. We are using revit 2011.

I am a part time user of this wonderful program and only recently moved to 2010 and yet I cannot figure out what I am doing wrong. I have Googled and looked in my texts and still am having difficulty (also attempted to search FAQ on this site but the link malfunctioned).
Am just starting to explore Revit and was trying to add some lights to my building to play with some renders. When I try and load anything from within the 'lighting fixtures' however, I am met with the message:
"There is no tag loaded for lighting fixtures, do you want to load one now?"
I have explored a number of other family types, walls, doors, windows, kitchen and bathroom etc and never had this message/error occur.
How to get single day lighting working in a walkthrough? I've tried just setting the lighting to that but it won't render as a proper walkthrough animation (just saves as a 1 second thing). Everything was fixed when I turned the lighting back to a fixed time though.

View 9 Replies View RelatedSomething has happened and now I cannot select grid lines in curtain walls. I can tab to highlight the grid line (dashed blue line) and click once. This used to make the grid line a more solid blue and witness line dimensions appeared. Now the cursor becomes a "move cursor" (four arrows), the grid line highlight disappears and there are no witness lines.
Nothing is pinned. The vertical grid pattern is not fixed. I've restarted Revit and I still can't select a grid line like before.
This problem started when I tried to change a grid line in a curtain wall that I forgot was part of a group. It let me select the grid line and when I changed the witness line dimension value there was an error message with no information except for entity ID and a cancel button. After that I could no longer select grid lines in this project. If I copy and paste a curtain wall from the project to a default (see attached) I cannot select there either. I can still select grid lines in other older projects, however.

I can not select the walls and windows on the floor plan, but can select everything else like the dim,text, section marks, etc.
I also can choose the walls of the first floor, if they are used as the underlay of the second floor. However, when I am in the first floor plan view, I can not.
I am using VB.net to do a selectionset for any object crossing a line. I can pass 2 points fo the line(start and end )

I have built a alingment, corridor, and surface of a driveway but I have a few holes in my surface. I tried to add lines to my TIN surface and some filled in properly but others would not and I had TIN lines that crossed (actually they are 4 different lines that meet at on point). Why does this happen and how can I fix it?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have two pipe networks and two profile views, one for storm and another for sanitary. I would like to show the crossing pipes on each of the profile views. When I select the profile view, add a pipe and change the style to crossing the style is change to crossing on the other profile view (ex. on sanitary profile view I set storm pipe 3 to crossing style, on the storm profile pipe 3 changes to crossing style and does not display). Isn't there a way to display the styles for pipes different in each profile view?

It can be done using the LaneFromTaperedMedian subassembly, and that there is a webcast explaining it. I have checked with Autodesk, and the webcast is no longer available. Any detailed instructions as to how to accomplish this. I'll attach an image of my median.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a drawing with 3D polylines that will be used to build a surface but many of them cross each other.
I would like to extract the vertices of these polylines and use this information to build the surface but can't figure out an easy way to do this.
I have tried the Points at Vertices Automatic which is ok but as there are 300 or so 3D polylines this will get very tedious very quickly - is there a better/quicker way to do this?

We are starting a new job, and looking how to setup our drawings. We have a long corridor that we are upgrading, and along this corridor, we have various water course passing through. We are replacing the existing culverts. They are large circular culverts. How do we show the culverts on our model? Do I create a short pipe network for each culvert crossing? And also, how do I daylight to the outside of the culvert as the corridor crosses over it?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI created this label for my pipe crossing. I want to be able to start the vertical line at the invert, and be able to move the text up and down and have the line adjust.
Currently my dragged state has the arrow head size as 0 and visibility as false, since it starts the leader at the centerline of the pipe. But without using the leader, I cannot adjust the vertical line dynamically.
Dealing with an old topo. Building a surface from a point group of points in the drawing, and 2D polyline being used as proximity breaklines.
Here is my list of events after I rebuild the surface:
So I went to use the 'Resolve Crossing breaklines' tool, and here's what that looked like:
So are there or aren't there?
When I use the 'Zoom to' feature, it takes me to the midpoint of a TIN line on a breakline, with no other objects around. Crossing window selection: only the surface and one polyline. I found one crossing breakline just by accident, not from either of these tools. After I fixed it it didn't change anything. I even deleted all the breaklines from the surface and added them again, closed drawing and reopened, no change.
Problems with masked crossing pipe in the profile view? So basically I want to show a manhole with three pipes attached in the profile view and I use style override for pipes in a profile view to show crossing pipe, but crossing pipe gets masked with "Enable part masking" option in the Structure style. So I either can show crossing pipe and projected pipes drafted to center of the structure, or I can see only projected pipes drafted to the structure outer walls, but cannot see crossing pipe.
I would like to see projected (incoming) pipes drafted to the structure outer wall, and crossing pipes. Is that possible? See figure attached.

How can i check the elevations of 2 alignments that cross (junction)?
The localization team in Israel has added a utility that marks the junction on the profile view with a red flag and 2 marker lines, one for the existing ground and one for the elevation of the crossing alignments. The flag is not a civil3d entity, it's not dynamic and needs to be reset after each change.
Any better way of checking the elevations? (including adding a block or anything to the profile to show the other alignment name and elevation).
I have a storm crossing shown on a road profile, and the ellipse that represents the storm pipe is only showing part of the inner wall (I've attached an image). This pipe is skewed slightly, but the entire pipe crosses the road alignment, and this should not make any difference.
Also, is there any way, yet, (I'm using C3D 2011) to have the label show not only the pipe name, but also the invert where the pipe crosses the road alignment, and remain dynamic,? In other words, without having to edit the label text, and lose the dynamic capability. Land Desktop would do this, but it was not dynamic, of course.

Is there a way to show a corridor assembly in a crossing profile in c3d 2012? I have a underground duct bank that I have modeled using a simple corridor. Now I want to have the duct bank assembly show up in another profile that crosses the ductbank corridror. I can't really create a surface fom the corridor since the duct bank a closed polygon. BTW, The subassembly for the duct bank was created from a polygon, if that is any useful info.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have problem with medians ( Both MedianRaisedWithCrown and MedianRaisedConstantSlope) when crossing center line ( i.e whole median has to cross the center line).
I have median that goes along the centerline and it has to move to left completely ( whole median is on left side of the centerline) to cater for left turn. I tried with MedianRaisedWithCrown and MedianRaisedConstantSlope but it did not workout for me.
I used alignment ( for cl ) and offset alignments for median edge and etw. I have problem when the median edge ( offset alignment ) cross the center line and continues. I can see etw and median feature line shifts.
Is it possible to label a pipe crossing offset in section view dynamically? I see there are options to label start offset and end offset, but not at the actual crossing.
