Hi Guys,
I have multiple groups in an Apartment Complex i am doing. Each Unit is a Group including Exterior Walls.
All have 6" Exposure, but needs different Color.
Eg. If i paint a Red 6" Exposure, Revit applies that to all groups, which i DON'T want. I want to paint each group as i please, without affecting any other group.
Is there any solution?
If not, then i will have to download Impressions. But con with impression is that it crashes too often.
Thanks for your help in advance!
Hi, Select the group ...Edit type in properties...Duplicate & give another name. The groups will behave uniquely if names are different
You should create group types for however many paint schemes you have. If you paint, for example, one of your "Group B" types with red and yellow trim, then all the Group B types will have red and yellow trim, but groups A and C won't.
Thanks I appreciate your solution, but in my case, it is totally counter productive if i have to duplicate my groups only to paint a wall.
That is exactly i am trying to avoid. Creating too many groups....otherwise there is no point in having groups.
As for now, I have separated my Exterior Walls from the Groups leaving the rest intact. That seems to be working but i am still not satisfied.
Only if, Only if Autodesk would incorporate "Impressions" into Revit, that would be awesome.
Anyway thanks once again!
You could create assemblies instead of groups. Then when you change one (apply paint, for example) Revit automatically knows, "Hey, this is a new assembly type!" and creates it. If you paint another one a different color, Revit will create a third assembly type, and so on and so forth. And it works the other way also...if you happen to paint some assemblies exactly the same way, Revit knows that they are the same and merges them into one assemby type.
Regardless...Assemblies will let you make one, copy it all over the place, and then start painting them uniquely. Whether you actually care to keep up with how many types Revit is creating or merging throughout the process is up to you.
