Wall Reveal

Is there anyway to split a reveal? I can place multiple reveals over top each other and move the ends, but it's extremely time consuming. I've attached an image displaying my end goal.

Why would you need to split the reveal? Split the wall. Or am I misunderstanding?

@KraiggC

 

Create one Reveal, grip edit to shorten it, then copy or array.

From the image you posted, it looks like a pretty regular pattern. I might try and do this as a curtain wall, where the reveals are the mullions.

Same difference. Split wall vertically or horizontally and place vertical or horizontal sweeps at those split sections. No?

It won't let me copy the vertical reveals due to the irregular shape of the wall. The curtainwall idea sounds like a good one. My current work around is just a stacked wall with sections at the different heights I need.

Here is a pretty crude version I spent about 5 minutes making.  I edited the profile of the wall once done because your example had some kind of non rectangular shape to the wall.

Curious. It won't let you copy vertical reveals because the wall has an irregular shape? But reveals are basically hosted voids. They should copy and cut off at the edge of the wall profile. Can you post an example rvt?

Thats awesome. Thank you so much. Curtain wall is definitely the way to go.

Interesting Jeff. If this is the condition, then I'm on your side with the curtain wall idea -- if that LOD is really required.

You can array or copy on an irregular shaped wall just fine.  Just uncheck Constrain box.

@KraiggC: But I don't think @loboarch is using a curtain wall in his example. Maybe Jeff can clarify?

My example was made with a curtain wall. Made the general unit size in the wall type, then used add/remove segments to create the staggered pattern. Then changed the thicknesss of the panel. Then swapped to use a smaller mullion.

I agree that using curtain walls is the better choice when the pattern is typical and repeating.  Plus, the panels are under a different category so you have more control over the graphic such line weight and color.  One beef with using reveal is that the reveals sharing the same object style with the walls themselves so you need to use linework tool if you want them to look different.

Thank you all for the help. This is for a rendering, so it's construction usage won't be an issue.
