Elevation problem.

[Anonymous]

Hello!

I need a solution about elevation problem. I put a family on the first floor in elevation=2.3 m where the height of building is more, Height is 3.2m and this family shows in both floors, first and second floors. I have a photo to show my general situation problem.

Thank you!

hello, adjust your view range. thanks

[Avaris.]

Check your view range.

View range is ok. I try to change view range some times and the answer is not ok. I have some families that are putting in the some elevation. The problem is only for this equipment. 

Thank You!

hi, is there any way you can share the file so we can check? thanks

which revit version you are using?

There is one flaw in revit, when some element which is within " 1200mm" range from the level, it shows 

up..

thats one reason that element is showing up on both levels..

am sure if you move the element down, and keep more than 1200mm distance, it should hide..

give it a go and test and later we will see how to fix that...

Cheers

Hello! You have right but i need to keep this family in height 2.3m. If i keep this family in distance that you said, evry thing is ok, family is hide. I dont thing i have problem with view range because i check it again and again. Any idea please?

Thank you!

Am I right that the object is a plumbing fixture? Maybe there is a hidden line within the family which is cut by the second floor plan.

PS: Plumbing fixture is non-cuttable.

Hi

I would still insist to learn the default kind of " FLAW" in revit related to 1200mm 

vertical distance range..

1. Change Wireframe to Hidden or shaded View.

2. You can hide element below only if theres something solid ( like floor for example ) exist..

Try this 

1. As long as bottom offset is " Zero" , elements which are 1200mm below that levels are visible...

you may change the bottom offset just plus 50mm and that fixes the issue..

2. Experiment the following modelling and understand and then approach the actual problem 

you are facing....

a. Draw two levels.. ( 1200mm apart )

b. Create floor on both levels.. ( dont align on plan, move the lower floor bit aside)

c. you will notice the lower floor slab is visible on upper level...

so the issue is not with the Revit family, and not with the View range, its inbuilt ...

Best luck

I know how View Range Works, i think is an other problem because i have a family like that and it hide at other floor.

Thank you!

Hi
Whichever family it is (‘plumbing or any other )
Moment Revit plane cuts it( family ) , plan is going to show cut profile or graphics mentioned in the family in cut geometry..

Try to keep the family at zero offset from the level.. and if any element is heigher ( example shower fixture at 1.8m, shower mixer at 1.2m ) etc, fix it at correct height in the family..

so once loaded, actual family stays at zero level and other elements at their respective heights...
