It appears transparency overide (by element or by category) won't be printed from any floor plan views in Revit 2013. Tried elevation/ section/ ceiling plans. all ok. it seems to me that is a bug.
The work around is to switch the view to wireframe.
Revit 2012.
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.
Am getting warning "None of the created elements are visible in Floor Plan: 00 GF View. You may want to check the active view, its Parameters, and Visibility settings, as well as any Plan Regions and their settings". Phase settings are correct, no hidden elements etc. Cannot add anything by create similar, build panel. Its Revit 2013 - I have been getting a lot of cannot continue crashes but is this a forthcoming fix issue?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI just created a simple winodw family. I don't understand it looks fine in the reference level within the family.
But once I placed it in the project, it only shows the top mullion, I had to delete the top mullion within the family to make the plan view look right. What's the reason of it?
I just discovered the rafter framing extensions for revit. It is very handy but at places where there is a hip/valley the rafters are shown until the hip/valley. at all the other places (where there are ridges) they are cut at the place where the roof is cut.
I found another thread where they say to change the visibility settings of the rafter family what I already did before but it does not change anything in my floor plan.
My template don't have Floor Plan and Level.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSomehow today all the doors and cased openings dissapeared in my first floor plan.
They show up in the 3d views, sections, and second floor plan, but not in the first. I have checked the visibilty settings, and they are all checked and correct, and I have checked the height of my floor cut, which is adequately at 4 feet high. Additionally, if I make the detail level "fine" then the casings will show up around the wall but the wall will not show the door cut. The doors show up in a previous version of the model, so I'm not sure what has happened to cause the dissapearance.
How do I raise the cut plane in the floor plan view. I have windows that are not showing up in the floor plan because the sill is above the cut plane.

View 3 Replies View RelatedHow to solve this problem of 'Flattening a large 3d model (hospital ground floor) to a 2d floor plan drawing'. The 3d model was made in Rhino and I saved it as a .dwg file because Rhino kept crashing with the command 'make 2d' (file too large maybe :/).
I don't know AutoCAD 3d so now, I'm trying to just change the line layers and eventually plot it all, but sometimes when I save the progress.... AutoCAD will delete sections of my work sometimes :/
How do I show high level walkways and balconies (in dashed outline) on the ground floor plan in a high volume space?
Obviously I can turn the first floor RCP on in the view and manually draw the information, but I assume these lines won't move if the walkways above move (or am I wrong?). Also this seems slightly wrong given the amount of automation available.
I have a file set up that has a white box with a 65% transparency lens. When I go to print, the white box and what's under it disappear and do not print. If I close the document and reopen it, the transparent box and what under it are back.
What do I need to do so this doesn't happen?
finding out the process from start to finish, with the finishing product being in autocad. Would a architect provide you with a drawn floor plan and then you would draw it up in auto cad?

View 9 Replies View RelatedWhen I select the doors I want to use for my floor plan I can't see the picture of the door that I selected before and after I place it onto a wall, when you usually can. You can only see it on symmetric view, but not in a floor plan bird view, all you see is a gap in the wall (looks like the wall is split into two separate pieces). This only occurs for the doors, the rest of the design tools, I can see their pictures before and after, on the floor plan. I think maybe changed some settings, I'm not use. Maybe there is a way to set everything to deafult settings?

Or would it make sense to build for e.g. a VBA tool to support the CAD technician for repetitive tasks, like extrusions, in order to goal 3D, without having to draw everything (new) from scratch.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am working with architectural floor plans in AutoCAD 2013 trying to get all of the room name / number annotations uniform. The drawing is a compilation of a many different drawings created by different architects at different times, so the room numbers are not the same size.
I have all of the room names on their own layer and all of the room numbers on their own layer. Each name / number is a block. Is there a way for me to easily get all of the text the same size? So far the only way I have figured out to do this is using the "scale" function on each individual text block, this is not ideal as there are thousands of rooms...
