Revit :: Make Transparency Of Glass-materials Visible In Views And Section-views
Jan 12, 2013
We would like to make the transparency of glass-materials visible in views and section-views by using the "realistic style". During a 3d-view our glass-material looks like transparent. Isn't it possible for REVIT to display the transparency of materials in views ?
The workaround to hide "glass" by using "overriding visibility" is not possible for us because some of our families and project families are using glass-materials inside (Showcases f.e.).

Can you make a glass, which is transparency also in elevation views? In 3D views it is transparency and you can adjust it too, but not in elevation view? Is it so?
You can only hide it totally or let it be non transparency?
See illustration what I mean.

I am working on a project that contains a main road with on both sides a bike path. From each of these thins I made a profile, alignment, etc. I made one assembly with two assembly offsets, each on one side of my main road. So far everything is going very well, but here comes my problem.
The two bike paths assembly (these are assembly offsets) I want to connect to my road assembly. I found some information about a "marked point" and the "Linktomarkedpoint" assembly. I placed the marked point on my edge of the road and placed the linktomarkedpoint on my bike path. Rebuilding my corridor and when I took a look in my sections, the line between the bike path and road ain't visible. I gave the marked point an unique name and the linktomarkedpoint I gave the same name as my marked point.

Since the end of Aug. 2012 I've been making families for a manufacturer. I left Friday evening with good families. This morning I am finding all the families I checked with a problem.
When I move the cursor across the various views it doubles the views. Rolling the mouse wheel one click either way to zoom in or out cleans the view but on the next time the cursor goes across the view it doubles it again. Now there are 4 views overlapping each other. The next time it is possibly 8, and so on. It is difficult to count them because they are overlapping but it looks like they are doubling each time.
The software is Revit Architecture 2011 and the computer is a Dell Precision T3500.Are the families corrupted or is it the computer? Is there a toggle I hit that I shouldn't have?

breaking wall section views ? ie. using the section view tool works very well for a BIM wall type, but how can we cut the section so we don't need to have the view show the entire height, etc of the wall. especially when fitting in representative sections of twenty different wall types/situations on a single sheet ?

I have a project with multiple revit files linked in to it. Some of the linked 3D views contain section boxes that section off each floor of the building. (3D-Level 1, 3D-Level 2, etc.)
When I link one of the 3D views and enable section boxes (via the Extents->Section Box and via Overrides -> Links -> Display Settings -> Annotation), a section box will appear, but it is not the same size as the one in the linked file.. which makes my drawing show all of the floors instead of just Level 1. I am able to resize the box manually so I assume it is a local one.
Is there something I forgot to toggle? If not, is there an easy way to figure out the elevation/dimensions of selection boxes in the linked file so I can transfer the data to the local section boxes?

I am trying to make section views from the parent view. I need to make several section view, but there is not enough room on one sheet for all of them. Is there a way to move or copy the section views to different sheets and keep the connection for when chages are made all views will update?

I have lots of section views with some surfaces and pipes. Unfortunately, in a number of section views pipes are not shown in full height because the section view level range is too little. What I am wondering is - is it possible to automatically adjust section level ranges so that they fully include pipe sections? Please see also the image in the attachment.

When i am creating section sheets from multiple section views ,section sheet view port scale changes.I did set it correctly in my template.
For example it changs from 1:150 to 1:150_1
Then in section sheets scetions views are not displaying correctly.
When i change view port scale manually it shows correctly.But it should do to all sheets.
What should I do?
In model spacr multiple section views are showing correctly.

In my section editor my labels show up correctly and in all the locations I want. But then, in my cross section file, I look in my section views and they are completely different. When I try to label more points under the Code Set Styles, they won't even show up on my section views.

I think I just haven't done this in a while and can't find the right setting.
I have existing sections.
I have section views.
I created a corridor.
How do I add the corridor section to my existing cross-section in the section views?
I can view them in the corridor section editor. But I should also be able to add the corridor section to my section views, right?
To plot them, do I NEED to do this through Sheets Sets? I don't have experience with sheet sets yet.
I don't use Civil 3D often enough anymore. Still learning much about the new interface and pulling a design together.

I am trying to create a second base view (using Layout/Create View/Base from model space). The problem is, I need it to be rotated from the original base view. However, when I rotate the part in model space, ALL of my views change.
So I guess my question is, how do I create multiple views of the same part that are seperate from the other base views?

I've a 3D drawing. I'm taking parts out into new layouts with the "Base" command. I place the top view but when I project the "End Views (left, right, front & back)" I can't see them? They are there, when I move my mouse over them I can see them. What's up with this?

So I am trying to create section views that detail the correct assembly of two parts.
These parts are welded on top of each other so its important to have clear understanding of how they fit together.
So imagine a pipe bent in the shape of a circle, in the horizontal plane, then holes drilled into the top (vertically) and then another pipe fitting in the holes and being welded together. This is what is happening.
So I am trying to create a section view of one of the holes with the welding information.
When I go to create the section view, I draw a line that would pass through the center of the large horizontal circle (but doesnt) and the center of the hole I am trying to detail and through to the outside of the horizontal pipe.
Now with this line I should get a view of the assembly exactly perpendicular to the line from that point. This is what is called "Aligned" in Inventor and what I was taught as a "Section View". However, this is not the case at all. I get what is called a projected section view.
find a way to get an "Aligned" view of this without sectioning the entire assembly. I just want the small bit necessary to show the relevant information.

I am trying to create section views to track beach erosion. I have created an alignment and sample lines successfully. The shorter sections look as they should. The longer sections are a mirror of themselves (ex: a section that should be 529' in length is drawn as 1058'). Is this a matter of needing to create a corridor and going the other processes that normally have to be done for a road or is there something else I am missing here?

I'm working with civil 3d 2012,I'm trying to find a solution for the following problem,in Civil I have an alignment of 2kilometer and they want a section view every 5 meters,
automatically I can create over 500 section views, no problem there,but then I want to plot these 500 section views to a png file,and to do that I need to get all of them in separated layouts, for which there also is an automated function but its stops at 255 layouts,I've done 4 km in split up drawings..I've got 40km left no option splitting it up in 1 km sections.

I have the task of creating elevation views of a site. These views require that the model be clipped along a section line to crop the forground so it doesn't obstruct the view of the site.
I've experimented with the section plane tools in the 3D modeling workspace but I can't get a section view. I suspect it is because they don't work with C3D surface objects. Any workflow for this task? Ultimately I need to generate hard copies of the views for the architect to use for his landscape plans.

I am a new user of AutoDesk inventor and have a few questions about saving different views of the drawing. I have a floor plan layout and need to save several different cross section views to see different angles and different parts of the interior. I am familiar with how to do this in programs such as google sketchup but not inventor. I also need to insert text with arrows pointing to different things in the drawing. Is this possible with inventor or does the drawing need to be put into other software such as paint.

When I create multi sect views they plot 3 rows from left to right shown below:
0+00 1+00 2+00
I would like it to plot from bottom to top like shown below
2+00 5+00
1+00 4+00
0+00 3+00
Is there somewhere to adjust the settings?

im trying to make an template we can use as default template..
now when i make a section view or a detail view of a part, the annotation is placed above the section view..
I would like to have that underneath the view.
I know can drag it down there, but is there a way to have the annotation underneath the view when its created? would save me and the rest who is going to use the template a lot of time..

How you constrain a section view so that is perpendicular to an axis. See "SECTION B" on the attached drawing for an example of what I am attempting. I have created the view but cannot make (constrain) the view perpendicular to the slot that is orientated at 30 degrees from the vertical centre line. I have lined up the view by eye so it looks close but it's obviously it's not accurate.
