Hide multiple selected Grid or Level bubbles with a click

Hide multiple selected Grid or Level bubbles with a click

Please allow hide / unhide multiple Grid or Level bubbles on the selected Grids or Levels. Right now we have to select one by one and click " Hide Bubble" and that is hideous process for our projects where we have 30 to  50 grids in each direction.

Also the "Properties" pallete  and "Match properties" command should be aware of that too.

This can be accomplished with the API or with Dynamo pretty easily (i have a script that does it).  The tough thing here is that the Grid bubbles are a "By View" thing and not an instance parameter, and it is highly dependent on how the grid is drawn (top to bottom or bottom to top).  You may want all of the Grid Bubbles along the bottom turned off, but if some of the grids wer drawn top to bottom and others drawn bottom to top, then you cannot uniformy say "Turn off Grid Bubble End 1" and "Show Grid Bubble End 2".

 

If it were possible to select grid ends as separate entities (much like selecting a placement point of an adaptive) and then choosing "deactivate Grid Bubble at chosen end" where Revit would understand the active view and understand the end the user desires to deactivate - then this might become a lot more useful.

The ability to toggle the Boolean switch boxes for the grid bubble location with more than one grid line selected. Also to open up this feature to the API so developers or Dynamo developers have access to this where we can set grid bubble location at parameter 0 or 1 on the grid curve.

Bosborne,

 

Can you post a screenshot from your Dynamo script for this issue.

I've requested this in the past.  But here is my take on it:

 

I want to be able to go to a view, then somewhere (View template maybe) be able to tell REVIT to turn off or on grid heads in a certain pattern.  For example:

 

LEFT:  on

RIGHT:  off

TOP:  on

BOTTOM:  off

 

Then be able to modify it, and always be able to redo the process later.  This might be easier if Grids had an internal orientation tied to the coordinate system, i.e. North = Top, South=Bottom, East=Right, West=Left, and angled grids (less common?) would have to be driven by quadrant, maybe NW=TOP, NE=TOP, SE=Bottom, SW=Bottom

Check out the DatumPlane 2016 APIs. I think they may accomplish what you're looking for.

 

Cheers,

"The ability to toggle the Boolean switch boxes for the grid bubble location with more than one gridline selected."

 

THIS ^^^  needs to happen.  Not concerned about the API or it working with Dynamo, I just want to be able to select multiple grids and change the visibility of the bubbles as the box disappears when multiple grids are selected.

Thank you Pieter,

YES. Switching grid heads one-by-one is tedious and time consuming. It would be great to be able to select them en masse and change the grid head location.

YUP... then propagate!

It can actually be done, just select all the desired grids, go to Edit Type, and  then Uncheck "Plan View Symbols End" if you want to hide and vice versa.

brontee.zaman,  I'm pretty certain your suggestion (modifying the type) would change grids for your entire project, as opposed to by view.  This also doesn't treat horizontal grids separately from vertical.

That is a good suggestion. I am MEP so we typically just copy monitor the grids. I think during the copy monitor the grids know which end is 1 or 2. This is a problem cause we know Architects draw the grid only one time and never change it, right? They always keep track of which end is which, right? 

 

So I think managing types and ends is not the road most on this post want to go. The check boxes from the TYPE dialog need to make their way to the INSTANCE properties. In addition once the bubble is checked on/off it no longer responds to the check boxes under types.

It would be convenient if you could select multiple grid lines at once to turn the grid bubbles on or off for a side.

It would be nice if there was a second checkbox.  One that would turn off the bubble for the individual grid, and one that turned off all the bubbles that the grid was aligned with. 

 

Another possibility would be that it would be like the alignment of the grid ends, where if you dragged one grid, they all go, but add a similar behavior with the grid bubble checkmark, where if the grid is showing the locked symbol(alignment), and you check the box, then all the aligned grid heads update similarly.  If you wanted it to just apply to the one grid, you'd unlock it first.

Hi,

 

this is not an exact solution, but you might want to check out PyRevit. It has a similar function already built in:

Hope that helps!

Obviously there are a lot of options for this, but most helpful for me would be the ability to just "turn all grid heads on in view."  This is what I most frequently want to do.  Here is an example with 136 grids, and there is an upper garage plan too.  It is really, really, really tedious to do them one at a time.

Here is the tool you are looking for ....

Only for 2017 / 2018

But this should be native to revit.
