Mirroring Legend Components

Hi, we are creating room data sheets, and are putting the door schedule information as well as 3d views of the room on the sheet. The problem we have is where a door has been flipped in Revit, we need the door elevations to match and I can't find a way to mirror the legend component, is there a way to do this?

Thanks,

 

Matt.

Unfortunately that functionality is not there yet - 

 

It would be awesome if it was, I know there are components that come in that I want to rotate and I can't - it is frustrating.

It's usually more difficult for me to understand what they are

asking and what they want to do than it is to understand the

Revit operation. But look at this legend sheet view and see

if that's what you are looking for.

It's 2019 and it's still not possible. Maybe in 2035 if we are lucky.

I use Assembly views for legend for a better freedom.

Yes, the limitation of this functionality has really stopped us in our tracks in using legends, which is very frustrating as we have already invested a lot of time in getting legends working for us in other respects.  Seems like an arbitrary limitation and something easy to fix.  Can we please escalate this and get it working in the next release?

 

In the meantime what is the work around?  Do we actually have to duplicate all our families and mirror the geometry in the family just to get it looking right on the legend?  It is not unusual in the construction industry to want to show doors and window opening in different directions.

Still an issue in 2023. This is a necessary functionality, especially for wall assembly legends.

@autodesk Can we get this function? It is still not there in 2024.
