Revit :: Flip Object Vertically
Nov 23, 2011
I have an object, a non-symmetrical anchor clip, that has four configurations: Left Top, Right Top, Left Bottom, Right Bottom. In the project, I can rotate the clip from the project's Top view, but when I try to rotate it from the Front, I get the message "Can't rotate element into this position." In the family (see attached), I have a Flip Control in place to flip the element right-to-left, but I can't seem to add a top-to-bottom control in an elevation view. To get the project out the door, I created a top and bottom version of the same object, but this seems redundant and makes my scheduling more difficult.
How I can either add another flip control to the family to easily flip the clip (preferably) or rotate the object in the project so that it is upside down?

I'm just getting to grips with paths.
I have created a path, which I want to copy, then flip the copy in the vertical axis, then join it onto the original, yeilding a path that is vertically symmetrical.
I can create the path OK, and I've figured out how to copy it.
BUT .... when I go to Edit > Transform Path ... the flip vertical and flip horizontal options are greyed out.
What am I doing wrong?
I'm using CS4 Extended v11.0.

I'm trying to create a frame and panel kitchen cabinet door family. It flexes correctly horizontally, but I can't get it to flex vertically. What do I need to correct?

I'm trying to Array a typical floor for a high rise that I've made a group, but I can't array curtain walls vertically. It's too many floors to do one by one and if I make changes to one floor I'd like them all to change.

I've just spent a day creating a set of door families, each with the door opening out.
I now want to have a variation with the door opening inwards (same frame etc) and if I was doing it with Autocad 2D would do so by having a flip grip and selecting only the frame, door panel, swing etc to flip about a certain centreline.
This doesn't seem possible in Revit, flipping seems to all or nothing?

Is there a way to make multiple object flip on themselves? I would like to find a way to rotate multiple objects, but in actuality I want tmen to stay where they are but just rotate 180 and not based on a base point

Working on a project with a green house. I created a roof using "roof by footprint". I selected "sloped glazing" and assigned mullions for the various conditions as well as spacing.
The walls below are curtain walls. When I create the roof, the mullions are oriented the wrong way. How do I control the orientation of the mullions?
In desperation, I mirrored the roof about a vertical axis. See images below.
This corrected the orientation for me, but I must believe there is a better way! A "proper way"... Did I miss something in the initial creation of the roof? I changed the sloped glazing of the roof to a basic roof. When I do this I notice the roof moves up.
I assume this is when the orientation of my roof inverted...

Is there a way to flip face multiple times? I have lots of composite window in the external wall of my model which someone has placed the wrong way round, at the moment I’m just flipping one window at a time.

I downloaded a pocket door from Revitcity.com and noticed that whoever created this family had one of the "controls" that flips the family on the elevations. When I am in elevation view my controls are grayed out. Just wondering how to place a flip symbol on the elevations?! I would love to be able to switch the swing of a window or door on the elevations!!

When I apply a curtain system to a mass, the curtain panels flip inside to outside as shown in the attached image, when applied to a curved mass surface. Additionally, if these systems are applied independently the system justification (beginning and end) is reversed.

Please take a look at the attached dynamic block.
I have two flips in there, one verticle, one horizontal. For some reason, whenever I tell it to flip, and then select everything in the block, it doesn't flip the other flip's arrow.
Then, when I created the second arrow, and went back to include the first flip in the second flip's Action Selection Set, it doesn't pick it up. Doesn't matter if I do "modify selection set" or "new selection set"... doesn't matter if I select everything within (blue box) or everything that touches (green box).
Yet, when I highlight the icon box, it shows everything is selected.
Can flips not flip other flips?
Additionally, I want the rotation parameter to flip on the horizontal flip (so it stays outside the block), but I can't get that into the selection either.
What am I missing with these selection parameters?

Let me start this off by saying that I am completely new to Revit Architecture. Just recently I got the program off of the student site and have been looking forward to learning how to use it. However, it seems as though I am stuck with a problem that will not allow me to use the program at all. Every time I try to create an object, be it a square, line, or column, Revit experience "a fatal error" and needs to be shut down. I have tried to reinstall Revit but it hasn't worked the situation in any way. What could possibly be going wrong that is causing this program to fail at its most basic functions?

I have added a 4 Panel Sliding Door from the standard Revit family. I would now like to only change the colour of the frame in lets say my north elevation. My understand is that this would be done by overriding the frame material via Manage>Object Styles>Doors>Frame/Mullion, then applying a new material.
I have made sure that my shade colour is set to the correct RGB value, and in my north elevation I have my Visual Style set to shaded.
Why am I not seeing the new shaded colour?

I want to make a walkthrough of the building I have created, and I was going to have the camera walking down the hall, with the camera aimed to the side so that you can see into each room as you pass it.
However, the doors are in the way. Is there a way to make the doors invisble in the walkthrough (or open them or something) so that it just looks like an arch-way.

Creating a particular object for use in a revit project. I have attached a group of images.
In short, it is an arched wall that is made up of a series of masonary objects (6types), each with the same dimensions, the only difference being they have different openings. The objects just need to be represented as a solid masonary for now. The individual objects need to be shuffled around the arch to test different configurations.
Would the best approach be to develop the objects as generic model families?

I am using Revit 2013 and I am wondering if there is any easy way of getting my generic model schedules to get the length of the object without having to manually type it in?!
I have attached 2 images to explain what I am talking about. I have created my own countertops and decided for scheduling purposes it would work best to have them as generic models. As you can see from the "Counter Top Properties" image that it has the length of my countertop in the program, but as the "Counter top Schedule" Images shows I can not choose "Length" as an available field. I had to create a parameter for the length ("Length of Unit"), which is just a dimension parameter, and I have to type in manually what the length is. Is there a way to get my schedule to get that length dimension automatically without having to manually type it in!?

I have linked a food service RVT model that has 1000+ pieces of specialty equipment. I've copy/pasted the tags from their file to mine. Now I want to be able to type in a tag number and have revit 'zoom to it'. Or I'd like to be able to make a schedule and use 'Highlight' option - but nothing seems to work because the elements are in a linked file.

I sometimes use the "Video Pan and Zoom" feature in VS ProX4 to pan horizontally. I also want to be able to pan vertically. Is there a way of doing this in VSPro 4? If not, do the more recent Pro 5 and 6 programs allow this?

What governs the location/distance from the object of the "object move symbol" when an item is selected? See attached image. I have selected the blue view reference text but the four way arrow/move symbol is way below it. This isn't using the move command. The arrows can be hard to find in a crowded sheet if it's very far from the item selected.
For reference I have added an image showing the location of the object move symbol for a text item. It's in the upper left corner of the text outline.
