Layout View Positioning

Is there any option to make sure that e.g. different level-section views  appear on same sheet positions? 

Currently this "positioning problem" is really big in order to e.g. make copy/paste annotations in pdf or similar editing..

No...there is no such OOTB alignment option. You have to use one of the following methods

  1. Use Dynamo - you can visit the Dynamobim.org forum OR google and you should find several graphs for placing/aligning views on sheets
  2. Use an aid component such as a Legend or a Generic Annotation which you can snap the view to
  3. OR use the Grid on sheets and eyeball the views.

 

As for copy/paste annotations, you usually do that between views...not sure how you related that to sheets and pdf.

Great but okay. Thanks ! 

 

\\ pdf issue: If there are several printed pdfs from that planviews. It is quite important to place annotations on the same position the text refers to. For sure there might be some more issues related to that topic.. Its always great if those plans do not "jump" while scrolling from sheet to sheet...
