Filled region across multiple views.

zbischof — Wed, 09 Aug 2023 16:00:00 GMT

I have a question about filled regions in Revit. I want to create a filled region that shows the scope of work for a project, but I don't want to copy and paste it in every view. Is there a way to make the filled region appear across multiple views automatically? Thank you for your help.

Filled Regions are Annotation objects. Annotation objects are per view.

You can try adding the Filled region to a Detail Item and place the detail item family in your views. you won't be able to edit it like you would a region, but it should be seen in multiple views.

my bad... forgot a step.... gotta make a Generic Model family and load the Detail Item family into it. then place the Generic Model family in your view.

there may be another way, but i have had to do stuff like that for my Electrical Panels where they wanted a pattern to represent different panel types.

Create an in place generic model. Draw a filled region and an Invisible vertical line spanning all levels.
