I was asked if I can create a "zig zag" line pattern in Revit. I was able to with AutoCAD. What is the best way to do this in Revit?
Thank you.

Line patterns in Revit will not allow a "zig zag" or any special characters. Dashes and dots are pretty much the menu you have to choose from.
"lines" with a special character can be created using a repeating detail.
You also could try to create a line based family, depending on where you need the zig-zag lines for

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.
We create a "zig zag" to show fire walls around stairs and elevators as the city code requires a different symbol for a shaft fire rating or continuous fire barrier from floor to roof deck. I will look at creating a repeating detail to see if that works or a family based line.
Thank you.

I'M getting really good at this repeating detail thing. Made 2, .5" lines at 45 degrees and walah! zig zag linetype!repeating detail for a zigzag line
HI, @leilani.gnall-gregory I'm trying to do the same thing here, could you explain in more detail what you did to achieve this?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
I think I found the way to do it using your directions. Here I'll post a detailed way to achieve this:
1. Create a Detail Item Family creating a rotated "V".
Create a Detail Item Family.
2. Duplicate an existing Repeating Component.
Duplicate an existing Repeating Component.
3. Assign the Family created in "1."
Asign the detail family and fill the gaps
4. Enjoy! ![]()
Just Draw!
Hope it helps anyone else. Thanks to the previous directions!

Bonjour, j’ai utilisé la même procédure pour créer une ligne d’étanchéité.
Malheureusement, j'ai des petits soucis au niveau des angles. pouvez-vous m'aider à regler ceci (ou avez-vous une autre technique pour faire une ligne d'étanchéité? )

Hello, I used the same procedure to create a sealing line.
Unfortunately, I have some problems with the corners. Can you help me to fix this (or do you have another technique to make a sealing line?)
Yes, it's What that I would, but this one is for 4.95$... It isn't a lot of money but my office don't want to pay families. They want we create it ourself or take free
...... thank you anyway
