Shaft Openings 3d View

Very hard to work w/ Shafts in 3d as they are invisible before selection. So i can't easily check for intersections , extend , apply filters , etc.

Agree 100%.  Shafts do have a "Solid" geometry available in the API, it just happens to never be visible.  I'd like to see shafts have a "Solid Geometry" sub-category that could be toggled on and re-colored for coordination purposes.  Imagine how much easier shaft coordination would be if you could make all the arch shafts solid yellow and semi-transparent and make all the structural shafts red and semi-transparent in 3D.

 

With Dynamo it is possible to capture the Solid geometry, then send that solid geometry back to Revit via DirectShape, but that is only a snapshot and not an always coordinated element.  Great request - hope it can get some more support.

if you create a 3d view which only shows shaft openings, then do a drag box select, you can see all the shaft openings shaded, its far from ideal but a quick work arround

Here is btw Dynamo workaround how to make shaft into Revit solid  - https://forum.dynamobim.com/t/revit-shaft-openings-to-solids/13718/7
