Adding link to referencing sheet for a section

Anonymous

Hello all,

 

Revit noob here - I'm being asked to print pdfs with hyperlinks to section tags (click on the tag on a sheet and it will take you to the relevant sheet in the pdf viewer you're using). While the plan/elevation ->section view route is straightforward, I haven't been able to figure out how to get the reverse (section view - > referencing sheet) working.

 

The intent here is that a site engineer can quickly click on a section tag on plan/elevation, go to that section sheet to check, and then click on the section title to go back to the referencing sheet.

 

Thoughts ?

Print sheets to a multipage PDF then you can have hyperlinks.  Hyperlinks are one way: from a call out bublle, or a section / elevation mark to the destination sheet, but not the other way.  But you can just click on Back button (previous view) from your PDF viewer to go back.

Thanks for the quick reply @ToanDN . Unfortunately this isn't working for me. The section tags on plan sheets have the link but the section titles on the sections sheet do not.

Hyperlinks when printing to pdf from Revit are only a one way link. Right now there is no way to go back in the set through a link in the PDF that is created with Revit. But I will add your idea, which is on the minds of lots of people, to the Revit Ideas Forum. let me know if there is anything else I can do for you, and feel free to reach out directly
