It would be nice to be able to change the detail level (fine, coarse, etc.) with filters. This would allow us to filter ducts and show ducts smaller than a certain size as a single line.
In AutoCAD ist was normal to Draw large pipes as double lines (= Fine) and smaller pipes as single lines (=Coarse), Please add Detail level to filters, so we can make this a possibility.
Hello All. I came across this thread when trying to figure out how to hide the symbolic lines that my view was creating in a particular family when set to coarse. I would definitely like to see the addition of a detail level column to filters but I found a solution to my problem that may be transferable to some of yours.
My situation: I have structural framing set to coarse with filters set on structural usage so that steel girders appear one way, joists another, a beams(other) another. The problem I have had is that we show wood framing members at medium detail level to better represent ply # and alignment. I've modified the simple 2x wood framing family to include multiple ply instance parameters and to show up in coarse views but it still generates the symbolic line in the center which is a problem for odd ply members. There is a parameter within the family that changes the symbolic representation from project settings to from family. Since the family no longer contained the the original symbolic line, it no longer shows up in my view.
From Project Settings:
From Family:
If you're willing to modify the families that you use, you could control the symbolic lines that are based off the detail level with parameters. You can have more than one symbolic line in the family, and more that one line type(subcategory) if the system family permits. I did this with my steel girder family to show (3) lines, with 2 different line types controlled by filter.
Was this ever escalated up the ideas board? Come on Autodesk, this is an easy fix (I assume) and would provide powerful control over existing and new phased objects via a view filter.
I'm wanting this feature right now for structural elevations. I want only the girts to be coarse, and the rest of the structural framing to be medium detail level.
Another similar idea: it would also be very useful to be able to set the detail level in the visibility/graphics of the vue template, per subcategory. Currently, in Revit 2023, we can only override the level of detail of the main type (beam), but not of the subtypes (see image).
Example: for bracing elevations, columns and beams are shown in high or medium detail, but the girders (structural use "purlin" ("Panne" in the image)) are usually in single lines. Currently, this result cannot be achieved without modifying the family.
I'm not sure if individual control is desirable... There is already milion of things that can impact visualization. We need more flexibility, so I agree with Point 3, @ReySantos, but individual control is too much because it can lead to caos without any real added benefit (with a filter you will be able to do what you need in a consistant way...
