Revit :: How To Assign Desired Scale Of Plan On One Sheet Without Affecting The Scale On Other Sheets

Sep 2, 2012

I have a floor plan with a very long footprint in a "View" drawn at a convenient scale.

The long building had to be broken to be put on several different "Sheets", and each of the floor plans on each of the sheet has a scale.
When I change the scale of the partial plan on one "Sheet", all the other sheets also change to the same scale and also the original view changes to the new scale.

Is there a way to assign the desired scale of the plan on one sheet without affecting the scale on the other sheets and on the original drawing view?

Revit :: How To Scale 3D On The Sheet

Nov 22, 2012

I notice that a 3D view on a Sheet, when the view is "activated" and with the crops regions on, can be reshaped, but I do not see a way to make what is shown on the view a tad "larger" (i.e., bigger, like zooming in). (I have tried, but I might be missing something?)

I wonder if there is way to scale a 3D on the sheet, to make the "scale" of only one of the 3D's larger on this sheet (without affecting the scale of the other views on the Sheet). Is this possible?

Revit :: Scale In Sheet List

Dec 19, 2011

Today I adjusted our title block. Scale is automated by the scale view of the views placed. It becomes 'as indicated' is multiple scale are used. No problem, that part I can live with (/ workaround).
 
Sadly the scale doesn't appear on a sheet list schedule. Which surprises me . With revit 2012 I was wondering: I am wrong? If not: do you have a nice workaround which doesn't mean I have to manually input it.

AutoCad :: Right Click To Change Scale Is Kind Of Moody When Placing Views On Sheet

Oct 20, 2013

The sheet set manager is an awesome tool (i just started using it a week ago). The problem is, whenever I place a view on my sheet, (by right clicking>place on sheet) and it says "Scale: 1:1 Right-click to change scale", i right click and all i get is:

"Invalid point. Specify insertion point:"

But here's the twist: Sometimes it does work (like 10% of the time) but most of the time it annoyingly doesn't. here are some photos:

*i'm using Autocad 2014 32bit

*using Autocad 2011 32bit in our office but still experience the very same case.

as you can see i have already attaced the "site development plan" view here (after a few tries) cadtutor 1.jpg

this is how i place views on my sheets. i can also drag and drop, but i prefer right clicking it. (are there other ways? share them too!) cadtutor 2.jpg

here, i've already clicked place on sheet and it's asking me to right click if i want to change the scale. cadtutor 3.jpg of course i do and i need to, but this: cadtutor 4.jpg

like i said, sometimes it works. I do a few rituals (i just invented) before getting it to show this scales list like right clicking rapidly or holding rightclick repeatedly but not rapidly. and "SOMETIMES" it does work. but more often, it doesn't. cadtutor 5.jpg

Revit :: How To Change Sheet Size For Zoom

Feb 21, 2012

We are trialling Revit for the first time and have made good progress in modelling a building we have already designed.
 
We have set up an A1 title sheet to match our existing one and have successfully printed at A3 by using the Center option with zoom 50%.

However when the zoom sheet size icon is selected the view zooms to an A4 Landscape view and I would rather it zoomed to the extents of the A1 frame but I haven't been able to redefine the sheet settings. Where I can find these settings?
 
I have opened all Metric Title block families from A0 to A4 and they all appear to zoom to an A4 Landscape extent. Amusingly the A4 Metric Title block is Portrait.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change Drawing Scale With ILogic Upon Parameter Change

Jul 8, 2013

I have a spreadsheet and iLogic driven mater assy to generate different iterations.

I would like to change the scale of a base view on a drawing based on a parameter in my assembly. The idea is to get iLogic to change the view using a simple If / Else statement.

This is what I tried:

If Parameter("0 Generic Assembly v2.2.iam.BP") < 1570 Then
ActiveSheet.View("VIEW1").Scale = 1/8
Else
ActiveSheet.View("VIEW1").Scale = 1/10
EndIf

So basically the value of "BP" parameter (excel parameter in my assy) would drive the scale of the views. But its not working. Is it actually a sensible method? Can I use in the drawing environment the excel parameters in my assembly?

This is the error message I get when the rule is run:

"Error in rule: View Scale, in document: 0 Generic Assembly v2.2.idw

Unspecified error (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004005 (E_FAIL))" 

Also using the same thinking I use iLogic to populate the drg number field on the drawing based on an excel parameter. The rule works but does not always updates the drawing no upon the parameter change or update/rebuild commands.

AutoCAD LT :: Changing Scale On Menu Bar Does Not Affect Sheet Scaling

Dec 6, 2012

I use AC 2013 LT.

1)When switching between the Drawing and Annotate option to the AC Classic option a menu would appear with options to use the civil menu, mechanical or architectual.  This has now dissappeared and I do not know how to acces it again.

2) Coming from a manual drafting background scaling appeared to be easier. I want to change the template scale shown in the title block from 1:1 to 1:5.  This seems to be able to be done as it is highlighted.  All my efforts save to enter it hard does not work, but this does not change the sheet scale. Changing the scale on the menu bar does not affet the sheet scaling

AutoCAD Inventor :: Scale In Title Block - No Prompted Entry / Keep Current Sheet Active

Apr 9, 2013

 First, it requires there to be a prompted entry text box in the title block named <SCALE>, is there any way to write to a textbox that is not prompted entry?  The prompt when a new drawing or sheet is created is misleading and makes users think they need to manually fill out the prompt.  Secondly, this code works on multi-sheet drawings but it concludes by making the last sheet active.  Since we are triggering this rule before save it's a nuisance to have the drawing switch sheets everytime you do a save.  Ideally, the current active sheet should remain active when the rule runs.  Here is the
 
For Each oSheet In ThisApplication.ActiveDocument.Sheets
ActiveSheet=ThisDrawing.Sheet(oSheet.Name)
If oSheet.TitleBlock Is Nothing Or oSheet.DrawingViews.count=0 Then Exit Sub
oTitleBlock=oSheet.TitleBlock
oTextBoxes=oTitleBlock.Definition.Sketch.TextBoxes

Revit :: Sheet Name Not Talking To Browser?

Feb 17, 2012

Was instructed to use arch titleblock.  I created my own shared parameters file.  I can physically click on the sheet and name the sheet but the name doesnt change in the project browser, 
 
So I created a shared parameters file.  I created the parameters I needed (in this case the sheet title).  The parameter properties discipline set to common, type set to text.  I  edited each label I wanted to re-associate. Hit new, selected the shared parameter, removed the arch label and added mine.  I loaded into project and had it overwrite parameters.  Then I went to the project parameters and added my shared parameters and under category applied to the sheets.
 
why the two (project browser and the sheet itslef arent talking?

Revit :: Sheet List With Keys

Jan 16, 2012

I was wondering if it's possible to create a sheet list that uses keys.  I'm trying to create a sheet list that will also have key dates listed with whether or not changes occurred to that sheet (something our project managers like to see).  In the attached image you can see how we're doing it today.
 
I can get everything with the exception of the dates that allow a yes/no style for them.  Is there anyway to recreate this in Revit?  If not could I make a separate key schedule for just the date portion and align it with the sheet list.  In essence creating two separate schedules aligned so it looks like one schedule?  I tried setting up that, but cant seem to create a key schedule that will allow me to use sheet items for sorting purposes.
