How can I change the default top constraint for all my walls! Some are by default constraint to the first floor, others are unconnected! That makes me think I can change it! ..
View 3 RepliesI'd like to build a new wall type that displays with a different line weight than is set in the Cut Line Weight for the Wall objects.
I've been using object overrides to do this, but I'd like to have a wall style the pervasively dispays with a different cut weight than the rest of the walls. So it would have a different weight when cut in section as well.
When I try and change the thickness or move most walls in the project I get multiple room volume warnings that pop up, in some cases 80 odd. These rooms in question can be on the opposite side of the building (60 Meters) and 3 or 4 stories up from the altered wall. So there is no way that all room volumes are overlapping. I've checked all the room volume heights, level placements and that rooms are all bound fine, which they are. I just can't figure it out.
I've figured out a work around but this can be a little time consuming and a little bit fiddly. Ideally I'd like Revit functioning properly and not have to keep reminding my team about the correct way to approach a wall change every time 80 new warnings pop up.
I have heard through the grapevine that this may be a bug that occurs in 2012 due to "internal disputes" we are unable to upgrade to later versions of Revit.
I want to turn my in-place mass walls (sloped or helical) to structural walls but i don't know how to do it. I'm able to do the walls but when i switch it to the analytical view the wall doesn't appear because it's not structural. It's there a way to do in-place mass structural walls.

Ideally I would specify a single location for all backups and tell Carbonite and my nightly mirror/sync application not to copy that folder.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to construct a wal with the start leve being the ground floor and the finishing Level being First floor level. every time i try to do this tho i get this message occur
"Top Constraint is invalid for the Level."
I'm at my wits end trying to cut a wall with a void. I want to chamfer the corners of a wall, but I can't get even a basic void to cut from a wall. I get the error : "This Mass has no solid geometry for its Void Forms to cut. They must be deleted, or solid geometry added and cut." They clearly intersect, what am I doing wrong?

In family editor have tried pinning the pull and pinning its dimension. Cannot lock the dimension due to constraint error. Pull is dimensioned to ref plane at center of glass door. (Door is sliding glass adjacent to stationary glass panels.)
I am currently doing an MEP project and I am tidying up the model at present. I am having problems attaching the walls to the roofs. There could be a simple solution but I haven't found it yet !
I have tried attaching top base etc. but its not working. I only seem to be able to select one side of the roof when selecting where to attach the walls. I have attached 3d pics showing the walls that are extruding & also one of the walls that I am trying to attach.
Just what the title says. Walls dont appear when drawing in plan view but appear in the 3d view. how come??
View 1 Replies View RelatedI drew some internal walls before adding a floor slab. After adding the floor slab the walls disappeared in plan. I can see them in 3D, in the correct place, but not in plan.
The floor slab is in the right position. To fix the problem I redrew them all, but why did they disappear and how do I prevent it from happening again?

View 1 Replies View Relatedwhy my existing walls show up fine in my sheet but don't plot to .pdf. I have the view range settings set correctly and all other sheets plot fine.
I thought maybe the roof transparency was the issue but Revit is usually pretty much a WYSIWYG plotting operation and the walls are displaying in the sheet file. Haven't tried plotting to a plotter but it doesn't matter. I need to plot .pdf's.
How do you join a square wall to a slanted roof so that the walls are not sticking out of the roof.

View 2 Replies View RelatedIn my 3D View my walls disappear when I de-select the structural box. Although drawn as regular walls they are store front panels so carry no load other than their own weight. My Visibility Graphics dialog box seems to have limited options for this. Am I missing something? How do I get them to re-appear in my 3D View for rendering without switching them to a structural wall?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have one wall (basic wall) where !'ve edited to profile to have a large rectagle omitted. I have a second wall (curtain wall) that needs to occupy that space with a 1/2" gap on either side and a 1" gap along the top. I can maintain the gap along the top, but when the gaps along the sides shrinks below 1", the walls meet and the gap is reduced to zero. I've tried making the internal wall into a group, but whenever the outer wall's profile is edited to within 1/2", And I click the Finish button, the interior wall (inside the group) extends to meet it. Automatically Embed is turned off for the curtain wall. I've tried locked dimensions, but that didn't seem to work.
How I can maintain the gap without the walls closing?

I will be using a truss to span from bearing wall to bearing wall. What would be the best work flow for the drywall ceiling material. The ceiling seems to require a core element. I cannot seem to manage drywall alone. If I create a ceiling with 2x4 core and drywall finish and create a ceiling over the whole area the ceiling seems to auto dim to the ceiling finish and not the core 2x4. Then there is the issue of the clean up at the top plate were the wall and ceiling finishes meet

View 9 Replies View Relatedwhether it's possible to modify the profile of curved walls. Normally when you select a wall, it should be possible to edit the wall and its profile, though when a wall is curved, the button "edit profile" is gray. Is there any other way to obtain a similar effect, maybe using masses or so?
