stretching multiple objects types

what Options are there in Revit for stretching multiple and different objects types that may or may not be connected in one operation.

 

I would be referencing a large scale revision like modifying a irregular shaped corridor within a large mixed use commercial building.

 

Thanks

Basically you move the hallway walls around, and whatever walls are attached perpendicular to those hallway walls will stretch shorter or longer automatically.

My issue would or I should say "will" be when I have a completed floor plan with irregular shaped rooms that do not have all walls or Objects connected to the corridor wall. as well as any line work or Hatch fills or furnishings, text notes and so on. This happens on a regular basis and there is only one tool in ACA that is effective for this type of constant revision. it is the multiple stretch tool which I use the CP command to accomplish.

 

So its sounding like I will have to window select or pick add to collect all effected entities then input the move by a reference line? or input the measurement to be moved? The Revit approach to drafting is "very very" different from ACA, so some of the simplest answers I have found have just never occurred to me.

 

I should mention again that a typical Mill layout are between 30 - 60k SF per floor, so that would be just too many things to pick individually. Im sure I'm just missing something as I'm just learning the program.

 

Thanks

Todd
