Error for path of travel

[ahirani24]

Hi All!

I am getting an error while trying to use the path of travel between two points. I have attached a screenshot of my error. Could someone explain why? Thanks!

 What's the distance between nodes? 

[ahirani24]

It's about 266'. But, I tried placing the node points just 12' apart and it still gave the same error. Do you have any idea why this would be happening?

[barthbradley]

Crop the View.  

BTW: Same result here with 266 feet.  Uncropped View errors out.  Cropped View works fine and dandy.

This is a rare case when Revit error message actually tells you very specifically what to do.  Do it.

Isn't it by code POT is only 200ft max ?

If that's the case, then my "code" must be broken.  😉

I'm over a mile so far...and still going.  My time sucks though. Guess I'm a little out of shape.  he, he.

No. 

1. In Revit, you could create a path of travel from one train station to the next if you want.

2. Code wise, there certainly are occupancies allow more than 200 feet max POT.

@ToanDN I'm sorry for being so naive. But, I can't crop the view in my situation. I'm working on a model and I will have lots of places where I have to calculate these travel distances. 

[barthbradley]

Huh? Why can't you put the crop boundary around everything in the View?

You can crop view and make the crop region as big as you want so that you see everything.

@ToanDN please guide me through the process..

Sorry for being annoying, but this is the error that I receive now. I have been mindful to remove door as an obstacle and keep the others as obstacles. But, unfortunately it is not considering walls as obstacles.
