Non Print Line Styles

I know that some objects can be turned off from printing but is it possible to create a line style that will not print?

You can use the or you can create a line with a color WHITE assigned to it. That will not print. Unfortunately Revit does not have the granular control that AutoCAD has , Then again it does not have layers.

What are you using the lines for that you wouldn't want them to plot?

 

If you want to keep a point for future reference you could use Reference Planes. 

 

< invisible lines > only show up when placing Masking or Filled Regions from what I recall.

I wanted to create a grid similar to the guide grid on a sheet view to align my sections and details in a modular manner on a sheet as recommended by Condocs. I wanted lite blue dashed lines that didn't print.

Solved the problem by creating the grid in an annotation family that I then inserted into my title block sheet family. I created an instance visibilty parameter for it so I could turn it off and on in the project. Works great.
