Brick Alignment, ext elev and int elev

[jim.karnik]

Please make it possible to have the line work on the exterior side of the brick wall type, pair up with the interior side of the brick wall type.

I draw precast concrete buildings and we use the ext elevs to show the layouts in this view, but we do our production tickets from the back side(int elev) of the wall type. I go thru the entire process of aligning the brick in the layout I need, but then I have to make my wall panel translucent and then align the int elev view to the view that I already aligned on the ext side.

In what world is the brick not the same on both sides? Why is this even a thing?

There's also a similar idea for ceilings: https://forums.autodesk.com/t5/revit-ideas/material-pattern-alignment-for-ceilings-on-both-sides/idi...

It's a "thing" because you might have different materials on either side of the wall.

Wouldn't you make a two layered wall in that case? Even if you don't, you could use the paint tool.
