section marks showed on different lenths on different plan views.

I noticed the the section marks are synced between some plan views and not syncing between other plan views.

How can i sync them all?

Hello,

I understand you see you´re section only in a few views and you want to see in all.

I hope this help you.

If you did not stretch the section line length manually then they adjust automatically based on the view crop size.  But if you deliberately stretch the length of a section line then you are on your own.  The length cannot be reverted back to automatic adjustment.

 

It's very much like Levels and Grids 2D Extent.

No i see them in all views, but on different line lenth.

ToanDN, Yes, i streched them manually.

There is no way to make the section mark line to appear exactly the same on all views?

As @ToanDN said, once you manually change them, you cannot revert back. The solution is to create a new one and not stretch the marker extents. Rather, stretch the view extents and the markers will go with them. Or you can manually stretch them back.

Drafting is a breeze and Revit doesn't always work the way you think it should.

I had some sections that behaved as @ToanDN and @RobDraw describe and others where there did not appear to be any association between the section mark line and the section extents or the crop extents even though the sections were brand new and had not been manually changed or disassociated.  It was driving me crazy because I could not find any rhyme or reason!

 

Finally, came across this screencast: https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/revit-products/troubleshooting/caas/screencast/Main/Details/a... It shows that there is apparently only an association between the "top" and "bottom" extents and the section mark line, but no association between the section mark line and the "left" and "right" extents.  That is illogical enough, but it gets worse because the "top and bottom" and the "left and right" can be flip flopped depending on whether the section was originally created in a plan view or an elevation view.

 

Both of those inconsistencies seem like they need to be fixed in Revit.

 

If anyone else out there sees something I am missing or has discovered a best method to align all section mark lines (preferably to a scope box) in both plan and elevation views, I would LOVE your tips!

Three methods I could think of...

#1 You can draw a reference plane, attach&detach from scope box (this will snap the rp to your scopebox) and use move to snap the section and reference plane ends. Drag the other end of your section while zoomed in to approximate the other end. When drawing a section you can pick both endpoints of the refplane or use pick line and select the refplane.


#2 Hide the original section in view and draw a referencing section using #1. Could be confusing though if you want to edit/move the section ie. if you don't have some sort of graphic override for referencing sections/referencing section type ie.


#3 Maybe use some align add-in/script (revit align addin doesn't seem to do the trick for me anyway)

I think I might have accidentally found a way to speed up the process.

 

If you need to amend the length of a section mark in different views, start with doing so in one the views. 
Then, with the section mark still selected, double-click on the following view you want to amend (in the project browser). 
I found that when the view opens, the section automatically appears with the new extent. 

You still need to open every single view you want this to occur, but it saves some time.

 

Edit: for some reason, at times it doesn't work. No idea why.
