Phase elevation

[MBBIM]

Trying to set up a renovation template with existing and new phasing.

First i set up existing but when i duplicate sometimes the elevation marker gets half copied and when i try to set up elevation views it gets messy.

New elevation views start referencing to existing floorplans.

Can set up elevations to be existing and seperate ones for new.

Sorry i set it up and it works. Copied the elevation marker from the old into the new.

Seems to work only if you click on a elevation line it brings you back to an existing floorplan.

[kadmonkee]

sections, elevations schedules and callouts are PHASE (view) specific

[MBBIM]

Yes i found out.
The only thing that i dont understand when i copy the elevation markers in NEW.
If i go to the elevation views NEW.
If i click on a elevation NEW.
I go to the floorplan EXISTING.

[kadmonkee]

select the elevation triangle and change the phase to NEW

you copied the symbol from existing phase to another only to have it display in the new phase

you have 2 elevations that are pointing to the same view

delete the elevation symbol in the new view and create a new Elevation symbol 

[MBBIM]

Nope.

Im working with an 2015 Revit LT version.

I create a new elevation marker in the right phase.

I go to the elevation view.

I click on the elevation and it brings me to the other phase.

[kadmonkee]

did you set up a view for all levels in both phases?

levels are not part of a phase.

they are merely a reference point in the project

each view needs to be assigned to the correct phase

01 EXST

01 NEW

02 EXST

02 NEW

when the ELEVATION Tag is placed in the corresponding phase it will point to the correct view

I used 2 different elevation tags in this image (1) for each plan view Phase

[MBBIM]

Yes im trying to find out if the level head is also phase dependent.

Because everything works fine but if i click ON the levelhead in a elevation view it does not bring me to the right phase.

[kadmonkee · Accepted solution]

post 5 of 8 displays that it is actually phase dependant

select just the direction head triangle (not the square) and assign it the correct phase but do this only in the correct view 

as in post 7 of 8 i show 2 different elevation tags in 2 different views with 2 different phases.

[MBBIM]

if i click on this one in new phase it brings me to the existing floor plan. Whatever i do it keeps doing the same. Yes i created different elevation markers for different phases and the views themselves are correct. But if i click on this blue levelhead it does not bring me to the right floorplan. 

[kadmonkee]

ok i see what you are doing now.

the levels have been created in the original views (existing) correct?

the levels do not recognize phase to my knowledge.

when you click on the level head it brings you to "A" view not the one you want.

if you have multiple views of the same level it can't distinguish which view you want to go to.

may i suggest that you use the project browser to select the correct view you want

[MBBIM]

So it's a bug.

[kadmonkee]

possibly 

but I don't think so 

it has always been this way

[MBBIM]

If you renovate a 20 story building it most be difficult to find the right floorplan.

Thank you for your time on this day.

correct

all levels would be created at the time of Design which puts them all under the EXISTING Phase

which would take priority over any subsequent views regardless of Phase.

which makes sense 

hope i was able to help

[MBBIM]

Right click "find refering views" brings up the right choice of views.

It will work for me i do housing renovation.

Tnx again.

[kadmonkee]

good call i forgot about that option.
