I am setting up a CD set for a residential project for a firm transitioning to Revit. I have 15+ years of Revit experience, and in spite of this, am having trouble achieving the desired results for keying 3" details of window jamb/ sill/ head conditions from 1 /4" scale elevation (following historic firm drawing graphics). Specifically, I have set up some custom detail callout view types, which I am creating in the 1/4" building elevation view (see attached screenshots).
The custom view markers I have created (see attached screenshot) can be created/ accessed in Revit by going to View>Section or View>Detail Callout. In either case, these tightly cropped sill/head/jamb details, with 1'-0" Far Clip Offsets (ie the 3D extents of these views is like 2'x2'x1'-ish) are showing up everywhere in other vertical elevation/ section view hundreds of feet away. I am not seeing any options in terms of parent/ independent settings, nor am I seeing anything in terms of the "intersecting views" settings.
I must have gone about this the wrong way, but am struggling to sort out a path forward. I am aware of the "hide at scales coarser than" setting, but since I'm setting these up on 1/4" scale views, that feature doesn't help.
Separately but related, even my basic building and wall sections are having similar issues: the section markers are showing in non-intersecting views far away. I don't recall this problem with this template file in previous versions of Revit (I'm using latest version of 2024)....what am I missing?!?
Turns out to be user-error on my part, views with markers showing up needed Far Clip Offsets to be adjusted to avoid intersecting the views. That said, would love if there was some other way of controlling this...
Have you consider using view reference to mimic your detail section? I use this a lot if the sections don't work the way you wanted. Here is a sample and see if this will help you if your section don't work the way you want it.
