Crop view in exact place in different floor plans?

[Anonymous]

Hi. I'm creating a sheet with floor plans from my model. Revit allows me to align the model, but this way the crop views will be placed in different positions as, I suppose, they don't have the same location in all views. How do I fix this?

Normally the crop boundaries are not printed. As far as I know there is no easy way to align the crop views.

Best option might be to place the two views on a sheet in the same aligned location. Then you can enter one view by double clicking then you can move the crop boundary to fall on top of the other view. Snapping will not work but with some zooming in you could get them close enough together to have them almost the same size

That was my first solution, changing it 'manually' to make them look as aligned as possible.

But I need these crop views to be 100% aligned. Isn't there a way to "copy paste" a crop view from one plan view to another?

[L.Maas]

No.

You can do it manually and when you are close you can further zoom in to get more accuracy. If zoomed in far enough the difference will not be visible any more for the naked eye

Assign a scope box to the views need the same crop.

Hi!

Maybe a few years late, but I usually do the following:

-Crop and scale my "base floor plan view"

->Then just select and click on "Edit Crop"

-Select the pink lines and CTRL+C or copy

-Go to next view

-Select and edit crop view frame

-Erase the pink lines

-Paste in current view the previously copied

-And apply 

Now you have the exaclty same place the views

Thank you for sharing this! You just saved me a ton of time on a 40 story highrise!

NICE! great work around. How about getting all your grid bubbles to line up the same on all floors?  Some floors have the bubble shown on top of the drawing and some have the bubble shown on the bottom of drawing.

Same solution as already written for cropping, but somehow ignored by everyone - scope boxes.

As for grid bubbles being turned on/off on different levels, create a new grid type with them turned on on both sides and assign it to all grids.
