Is there a way to turn off all section tags for drawings refering to all Sketch Layouts in all the Construction Document Layouts?

Coming from MDT (Yes I still use MDT daily) I'm having a hard time finding a Inventor equivalent for some things that made MDT really fast. I'll start with part tags in layouts. In MDT I was able to set up multiple different tag templates to tag a part in a layout. In inventor it seems you have to custom make it every time you do a leader off a part you have to select all the properties you want to add but don't see a way to save it once you have it set up.

If I want to trunoff/on some layers in different layouts, the best way is to use "vp freeze" column in layers properties manager. This way I can manipulate layers' visibility without altering them in MS or other layouts.
Left to "vp freeze" column there is "new vp freeze". I don't know what is this one?
I have been trying to figure out how to copy a Layout from one DWG to another. I know there are several threads about this, and I have tried the methods they reccomend, but I am having an unusual problem.
I have been trying to open a Layout by using the "from Template" option for creating a new Layout, then opening the DWG containing the desired Layout. It works, but everything drawn in model space ends up compressed into the lower left corner and there is nothing in model space. So, the paper space information from the Layout is being imported, but the drawing info is getting mixed up somehow.
I have tried using the Design Center with identical results.
I have a drawing with 72 layouts in it. I also have two drawings with one layout each, that I want to appear in the first drawing. How do I import the layouts from one drawing to the next? I found, "to import layouts as sheets", but it does not seem to be what I need.

I want to turn on/off individual layers in each of those Layouts. How is that done?

View 9 Replies View RelatedSay I have 10 .dwg files. Each .dwg file has a printable layout, a load of geometry, and in particular, a layer called "Animals" with some geometry on it. During .dwg creating some of the CAD engineers turned off the "Animals" layer in MSPACE and saved the drawing.
I now want to come along as the reviewer and plot these 10 .dwg files all with the "Animals" layer turned on. Currently I'd have to go into every .dwg file and turn back on the "Animals" layer, and then plot.
I am trying to create a lisp to delete all the empty layouts from mydrawings. I do not see any code to control this.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have a csv file that has the drawing names and their layout names listed in columns A and B. Before I begin a project, I have to create the Sheet List (in Excel) and the csv file. The csv file is needed because I have a lisp routine that reads the csv and updates all my Title Block attributes in all my drawings. (VERY sweet program) What I'm wanting to do, is create new layouts (using my dwt) based on the information in the csv file. So, when I start a new project all I need to do is create the base drawing files first. Then, in my csv file I've got those drawing names listed in Column A and their corresponding sheet titles (Layout names) in Column B. I run the lisp and it reads the csv and creates layouts in all those base drawings and naming the layouts with the sheet titles from column B.
Column A Column B
DRAWINGS SHEET TITLES
drawing1.dwg A100
drawing1.dwg A101
drawing"n".dwg "n"500
Etc, etc.
I'm needing a way to automate creating hundreds of layouts at once. (very time consuming).So the lisp has to be able to read a csv (or Excel--doesn't really matter) and create new layouts (using my dwt) in as many drawing files represented in column A. [and filtered so it doesn't create duplicates so I can run the routine at a later date when new sheets are added to the drawings] Captcha?
Using Revit Arch to draw/sketch construction docs in 2D, not utilizing the BIM or 3D capabilities? We are a mechanical firm and one of our clients recently told us that they have not renewed their AutoCAD license, are using Revit ONLY and they would like us to sketch our mechanical design in Revit as well, again... not in 3D, but 2D.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have a large building project with multiple linked files (building split into blocks plus furniture etc models) with shared co-ordinates. All are working fine except one which happens to be a furniture and equipment model. When sections and/or elevations are placed in either the host or the linked file the views do not corrospond with the cut line of the section or view line of the elevation, for example if I place an elevation within a room the elevation looks as if it has been placed in a different position some metres away. When the files are linked within each other using the shared co-ordinates they place themselves in plan and elevation perfectly. I am trying to create room elevations to show furniture/equipment layouts and this is making it impossible!

View 4 Replies View RelatedI was wondering if there is possibly a way to create, modify, or edit the section tags in Revit. I've tried going through Properties> Edit Type to change the size, and type of the tag (or the section head), but i notice there are only seven options, and no way to change the size of them. Is there a Family Type I can edit? Where would I find it? Is there a way to create my own, perhaps, and upload it into my model template?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have sections cut from floor plan that show up on my exterior elevations. I am able to stretch the tag ends using the blue dots. I also have placed section marks on the elevations that reference other section views. With those tags I am unable to stretch them up and down on the elevation views. When I try, they disappear. I am not stretching them outside of the annotation crop.

We created floor plans, created actual wall sections. Then we placed countless section markers that Reference Other Views with the SIM text by them. I would expect to go into the roof plan or elevation and see those same section markers. For some reason they do not show in any other view besides the view in which they were placed. The actual wall section markers show up. Just not the ones placed that reference another view.
Same in reverse. Go into elevation, draw a section marker that references other view. I would expect that marker to show in plan. But again no. I have not had this issue in previous versions of Revit. Just so far in 2014 this has been killing me trying to figure it out.
All views are set to Discipline: Coordination, and the original section markers are set to hide on scales courser than 1"=400' so they should show. Visibility graphics has sections turned on. There is nothing that shows with the light bulb.
how exactly do u make a layout with pictures and blending and all that...im really lost and I would love to have someone help me out.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm about ready to put together a large job that is going to have a lot of sheets. Since most of my jobs are one sheet plans, this is out of my comfort zone. I usually just have a scaled cover sheet/border that I drop into model space and put whatever I need into it there and then print it. This job has several mini jobs in one huge model space. I think It's going to be better for me to actually use paper space as its intended this time. I'm using 2010. Just a skeleton of an order of operations, so at least I have something to search for detailed instructions.
