User text override for "[No Slope]" when placing spot slope on flat element

User text override for "[No Slope]" when placing spot slope on flat element

Currently when placing a spot slope on a level element Revit displays "[No Slope]". We would like the ability to replace this text by instance.

The same thing happens when you place a Tag for show the thickness in a floor. It appears "Variable", it would be good when we could this text change.

Why would you want it by instance?
I would like to be able to change [èNo Slope] to my language or a more appropriate term, but that would be over the whole project, not by instance.

While Autodesk reworks this [no slope] tag I would also love that they let us get the real value like 0.1%....

 

Until now floors (or drainage pipes) that were that "flat" will just get a [no slope] tag while they are sloped in reality for example at 1mm per each meter. Even by setting the rounding to more decimals or setting the units to x/1000mm, we can tag 0.4% slopes but not 0.1% slopes... why ?

 

In drainage systems or infrastructure projects like bridges and tunnels, it forces us to use text in place of tag because it's showing a misleading value... it's not about tolerances... it's about telling that an element is flat when it's not !

 

I would love to be able to freely set the units to get for example a tag showing 1mm/m (or 1cm/m) which is a lot more neat than 1/1000mm

 

I think there is not a lot of work there, just those little things :

  • make the [no slope] tag be bound to the Rounding Increment we actually choose so if we set 2 digit after the coma it can actually show e.g. 0.05% and not [no slope] !
  • Provide a box to set the [no slope] text we want to show (required for non-english projects) for slopes below the Rounding limit.
  • add a Ratio : x type where the x can be set by the Rounding Increment value to be able to show 2 : 3, 4 : 1, 3 : 2, 1 : 1, 1.5:1 on eathworks slopes.
    Another possibility of being an X/Y and Y/X type able to generate neat fraction values (then 1.5:1 will be 3:2).
  • add a Rise / x (with or without a number before the unit "m" ) type that let us chose the units symbol (and units) we want to use to be able to show 1cm/m, 1mm/m, 3mm/m that are alot more common than the present 1/1000mm.

The points 1, 2 and 4 are essential in my opinion for infrastructure and MEP. 


The 3rd is only for Infrastructure and landscaping but required for documenting road shoulder ditches and grading. Off course for that purpose we also need the ability to tag the slope (and dimension) of linked topography elements in sections which not always work.

The 1st problem is a long waiting known issue !
