Wall Detail Level

[hmunsell]

i did a quick search and didn't see anything that jumped out at me as the same topic... so here i go.....

Would it be possible to set the Medium detail level to only show the finished face(s) of the wall and core.  then the Fine can show all the layers. this has been requested by many of my architects the past couple years. they want to see the Core finished face without see all the other layers of the wall.

Course:

Medium:

Fine:

WE NEED TO SEE THE WALL DIFFERENT IN EACH DETAIL LEVEL

COARSE SEE TWO LINES FOR FINISH FACE

MEDIUM SEE CORE LAYERS

FINE SEE ALL LAYERS

Agreed.

It would be helpful if they adopted the LOD 100-500 definitions as well. I'd love to see the View Detail get more attention/sophistication.

We need this exstra detail for MEP, in slovenia we draw pipe with tree lines, we need more funkcionality here

Hi Katarina!

If you change the detail level from coarse to fine you will see the pipe with three (3) lines. centerline of the pipe and the walls.

There are 3 detail level: Coarse, Medium, Fine.

At first in REVIT, you start with Coarse and you will not see the walls.

More interesting to see the center line in Hidden mode. In wireframe mode you can see the centerline but in hidden mode not :(.

The transparency is the solution for it:) But you will see the thing behind the pipe. (I have not the solution again that....)

Walls =  I meant pipe walls. The walls of the pipes

Yes, it is true : detail level from coarse to fine you will see the pipe with three (3) lines, but we want construction to see only in detail delvel medium (we dont want to have on plan 1:50 so detailed walls...)

I would suggest that instead of overall size, the Coarse display mode only show the core width of the walls, for wall / structural setout / dimensioning. 

This is frequently requested by our contractors, but achieving plan views that display this currently, we have to either: Break every wall in the project into parts and hide all non-core parts; or Model all walls as separate core wall with the non-core walls modelled as another adjacent walls -- the problem is that even when joined, users have to select several walls / parts whenever moving or changing the model. On top of that, we also have to model interior finishes (eg. plasterboard, tiles, cladding) as separate walls and join to building walls, due to the clumsy nature of Revit's wall type layers and wall intersection options.  Currently not a great situation.

this is similar to my other idea:

if there is a way to see the structural component of a arch wall in the structural view, you can have 2 views, one set to Struc and one set to Arch.

This is a good idea that would help us to manage more accurately the visibility of the wall. it would be great to actually have the ability to choose which wall layers, material or even wall layer category (finish, core, air/membrane, ...) are visible in the level of view visibility.
