      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;STRONG&gt;Beginning to see the "&lt;U&gt;&lt;EM&gt;Level-3-BIM&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/U&gt;" models with everything in them. &lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;EM&gt;To that end:&lt;/EM&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Currently a datum that has an associated view (on or off a sheet) is what makes a level. Working views throw this off and wreck havoc on templates.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;UL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;The Revit Database needs to be able to explicitly set apart datums from levels.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;'Sub-levels' or levels &lt;EM&gt;dependent&lt;/EM&gt; on a primary would also be useful to establish groupings and movements (We &lt;EM&gt;can&lt;/EM&gt; do this with locked dimensions -&amp;nbsp;&lt;EM&gt;however &lt;/EM&gt;a more structured approach&amp;nbsp;would bring clarity and permanence)&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;View depth control&amp;nbsp;in recognition of levels&lt;UL&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Include level with view depths as a checkbox so sub-levels and datums cannot interfere with view depths.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Worksets&amp;nbsp; by discipline should be attached to view templates and view ranges in particular for consideration of view depth and visibility. (I know worksets to control visibility is not the greatest idea.)&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;LI&gt;Ability to sort levels by height, not name, or have a columnar organization to sort by name or elevation on selection.&lt;/LI&gt;&lt;/UL&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Bentley Open Building offers the ability for Sub-levels. The issue with BOB is that there is only one degree of separation. It might be worthwhile to have 2 or 3&amp;nbsp; degrees of separation as indicated in example below&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Example&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Level (D=0)&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Kitchen Counter (D=1) Level+900&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Lower Cabinet Bottom Level (D=2) KC-800&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Lower Cabinet Mid Level (D=3) LCBL+400&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Upper cabinet (D=2) KC+900&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Upper Cabinet Mid (D=3) UC+400&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Upper Cabinet Top (D=4) UCM+400 / (D=3) UC+800 / (D=2) KC+1700&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;* D=X show degree of separation and specifies the referenced sub level&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
