Revit :: Line Weight For Core Of Wall
May 16, 2013Is it possible to have a line weight for the core of the wall that is different from the finish lines ! I mean assigning a different line weight for every component of the wall .

May 28, 2013Looking for how to set line weights differently for different parts of a wall.
I would like for the core wall to be boldest and for all the other finishes and sheathing to be finer and lighter.
Using the Manage>Object Styles didn't do this for me: I am looking for more that just one setting for the entire wall. Someone suggested settings for the materials, but I have not seen any line weight settings for materials.

Revit :: Display Wall Center Line In Walls?
Jan 8, 2013We r used to have a center line for each separate wall not just for dimension or placing but even visible after plotting and in each view including section , whether it is a structural or partition wall or ... etc , I am new to revit and i fell in love with the software right away, how to display wall center line in views , the only way i found out how to do it is either by drawing model lines or grid lines which will be so dreadful and time consuming if u have 1250 walls in the project . doing it automatically perhaps to be a part of the wall proprieties

Aug 21, 2012I have an exterior wall with plaster and lathe on the exterior, and gyp board on the inside. When I edit the wall structure, and modify the layers so that I can take the interior wall finish only up to the sheathing line, the wall does not join at the corners properly. It leaves a gap for the interior fininsh at a corner above the sheathing line when looking in 3d. What are you all doing with parpet walls and the interior finishes above the roof line?
View 1 Replies View RelatedRevit :: Unable To Select Curtain Wall Grid Line
Dec 3, 2013Something 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.

Revit :: Curtain Wall Mullion Isn't Aligned With Grid Line
Nov 4, 2011I'm having a bit of trouble using a curtain wall BIM model that I downloaded from a manufacturer's web site.
It seems like the vertical mullions are not centered on the grid lines; one side of the mullion is 1 3/16" from the grid line while the other is 1 13/16" away. If you look at the mullion in plan, you'll see the same issue. If you look at the profile rfa file, it appears that the centerline is properly located and locked, it's just in the project file where it's off.
If I select the mullion in the browser the right-click, Make Element Editable is grayed out.
If I select the mullion in the drawing area, un-pin it and then right-click, Edit Family is grayed out.
If i select the mullion in the drawing area then click Edit Type, the Type Properties dialog box shows the two parameters in the Dimensions group, "Width on side 2" and "Width on side 1", that are uneven by the same amount that the mullion is off of the grid line. I suspect that this the issue, but these are both grayed out and I can't locate their origin. If I duplicate the mullion, those parameters are still grayed out.I can save the profile, but not the mullion, which is showing the issue and contains the parameters that I want to change. How I can select and edit the mullion?

Apr 12, 2012Any way to get a wall sweep that's set up in the type/structure properties to follow a wall if that walls profile has changed. For example, in the image below, I've split the wall and adjusted it's profile to create some cheesy angled parapet. How do i get my wall cap to follow along? I thought splitting it and changing it's height would work, but no. And if I change the profile without splitting the wall the wall cap just runs right through the wall, as if the profiel was never even changed.
View 3 Replies View RelatedRevit :: Bulkhead Wall Join Skews Bottom Of Existing Wall
Jul 25, 2013I have to draw a bulkhead wall that connects to a full height wall and a gyp bd ceiling. This causes the entire end of the full height wall to skew in line with the butt joint above the ceiling level. I tried Wall Joins but all the options screw up the bottom half of the wall which needs to remain in line with the paired opposite. I also tried editing the sketch of the wall profile but Revit couldn't keep the elements joined. I tried trimming the two walls back together afterwards but the wall profile dominates and prevents a clean join above the ceiling.
Surely there's a way to have different kinds of joins at different heights?

Revit :: Arched Hole In Wall And Wall Height
Apr 16, 2013I am trying to make a floorplan of my house in Revit 2013, but I am having an issue when it comes to one wall in my house. I have an opening in the Master Bedroom that leads to the bathroom. This wall has a weird arched-like opening in it and I have no clue how to make this in Revit. I have attached a sketch.
Also, my exterior walls are 7' tall but the interior walls start at 7' and go up to 8' once in the middle of the house and reduce back to 7". How does one set that up in Revit?
EDIT: May have made the image too small to see, but the top is not arched, it is actually half of a decagon.
Revit :: Adding Wall Sweeps To Wall Profile?
Jul 29, 2011I have a question about wall profiles. I want to make a profile on a wall so I can make Zinc Panels on the wall that are 10" X 20". I've attached a picture of what I'm going for. I'd like it to have a 1/2" spacing between them and with a joint depth of 1" and I'd like to do this is the wall type so that I can use this wall in multiple places rather than having it model-in-place. Anyway I have made a profile that is 1" X 10" so that it can become my panel profile. But when I go to add it to the wall as a wall sweep as I have seen people do I get hung up on how to make it tile up the wall and also I don't understand how to make the profile so that it is 20" wide. I have a screen shot of where I'm editing this too. Below is the link of the site.

Revit :: Why Can't See Wall Sconces
Dec 12, 2013Short story is I made a wall sconce from scratch but I can't see the symbolic lines in my ceiling plan in the project.
I needed a linear wall sconce for a client presentation based on one of theirs already installed. The manufacturer doesn't provide BIM for this model so I had make my own. I haven't bothered with photometrics. At this point all I need is a placeholder for the ceiling plan and a 3D model for a hidden line view. I used the wall based light fixture family. There was a plane elevation but no apparent parameter so created one and called it 'mounting height'. After about ten minutes of modeling (and over an hour of tedious aligning, dimensioning and locking of the sketches to keep the model from distorting with changes in wall thickness) I opened the ceiling reference level plan and drew some symbolic lines to represent the fixture on the ceiling plan in my project.
Here's what happened.
The symbolic lines for the CPRL (Ceiling plan in the family editor) are also visible in the FPRL. I don't know why this is and there doesn't appear to be a way to hide them in just one plan. I suspect it's because both are at the same height (the reference level.) I tried changing the working plane before drawing the symbol lines to another plane above the reference level and out of its view range but it had no effect. I can still see them in the floor plan.When I loaded it into the project nothing appeared and I got the message about 'no elements are visible because yada yada'. The symbolic lines didn't show up at all. I checked the detail level and that wasn't it. As far as I can tell the view range for the CPRL and the RCP in my project are the same. They don't show up in the project floor plan either. The sconce is visible in 3D views so it's definitely in there. I tried monkeying with the height of the symbolic lines like I stated in part 1. but it had no effect on there visibility. Symbol lines are visible in other families so it can't be an issue with visibility overides.In my project I noticed there's a parameter for the fixture called 'Elevation'. Changing it moved the fixture up and down on the wall. Changing the 'mounting height' parameter in the project had no effect! This parameter worked fine in the family editor. Playing with the 'Elevation' parameter and the cut plane elevation brought the symbolic lines into view. Apparently the symbolic lines are only visible when the cut line is passing through the sconce. Unfortunately my sconce needs to be mounted at 6 ft and my cut plane is at 7'2 to avoid cutting doors and windows. How do get these symbolic lines to display?
