View hides behind the title block

Hello everyone,

 

I created a title block to use as standard for our company but when I add a new sheet and load the title block as a family, my floor plan view hides behind it. Does anyone know the reason for this and how I could fix it. Your help is very appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Hi Aditi - can you share your titleblock family?

...can you select the title block and tell me the category it's under?

@barthbradley

 

Why doubt your initial instinct?  There is a mask in the Tittle block family.

Thing is @ToanDN, I believe my initial thoughts were partially wrong because I tried to replicate it and can't. That has got me thinking now that it ain't no "Title Block" family at all.  It's something you can insert into sheet view, and that something does indeed have a mask in it. See where my mind is going?

My bad.  Maybe it is a raster image in the family.

AHHH! Good one @ToanDN

 

 

...I'm betting money that you're spot on! 

 

 

...the issue now is: how to minimize the Raster content without affecting the proportions of the rasterized logo? Hmm? Toughy.

You ARE spot on! I used a raster image as a base for the title block and added the editable text in the family. Although I used a png file thinking it will be transparent. :enttäuschtes_Gesicht:

Does it mean i will have to make the title block from scratch in revit? I made it in InDesign and imported it as a png file into the revit family. Another interesting thing happened. I imported the same file into a template i created for starting new projects and it works just fine in those files. I am a new to the software and trying to figure out all the basic things like building up a good template file pre-loaded with all the families, setting up VG properly, line weights, dim styles, etc. etc. and it's so confusing :enttäuschtes_Gesicht:

You have to remake it.  Keep the raster as a base to create the title block border, text, labels.  Then delete or make the raster Invisible.  For small logo you can edit the raster in am image editor, crop it as tightly as you can, and insert it in the family.
