View Range Settings in Revit Tutorial

[@randomCADstuff]

While watching this video I was reminded of one of my earlier battles with the view range settings; I think I was almost in tears before I finally figured out what was wrong. Turns out the view direction setting was completely throwing me off. The structural plans in whatever template I was using were set to "up" (or RCP) rather than "down" as I had expected. I think you'd change this setting by editing the view's family type (been a while since I last used Revit so I might be mistaken). I used to be okay with Revit but admittedly I've forgotten a lot (haven't had much opportunity to use Revit in the office unfortunately). Your videos are invaluable in re-acquiring all that lost knowledge. Thanks for posting such a great tutorial!!

dude you are a life saver! Always my go-to when I need a review or a new concept. Thank you!

[@johnhewetson4406]

Thank you so much. I was struggling with this particular tool and this is the only good detailed info I could find.

[@jgujral]

Thank you so much, you saved so many hours to find the right value that secretly would work..

[@Technologysix]

You are amazing my friend!!! Great videos! I have a long way to go, but these videos really are great. Thank you for doing them.

[@Burhan7794]

This was so much needed. For me Interms of casework and generic model and the plan region was so much needed. Thankyou again Balkan. You are doing great. Gratitude. :)

[@DaintyAbby]

Your English is excellent. Very articulate

[@AGFbadmash]

Excellent . I was stuck in view range setting but now its clear. So many things you taught. thank you sir

[@nazeef01]

Thank you so much, Balkan. Your videos are very easy to understand & it helped me a lot. Thank you once again that you are taking your time to make such a great video.

[@riadheddine1838]

[@sayedmoharam8640]

You are amazing bro, very useful presentation for the view range. god bless.

[@denizsun1671]

Thank-you, You are a Legend.

[@DanieleBettin]

Thanks for your video! Helps a lot!

Thank you so much, Balkan.

[@nataliabiron9965]

Excellent video! Thank you

[@fouezdesign]

Boss job as usual

[@nadifaaulia9676]

Hello! may I know ( 27:10 ) How to make your generic model only appear as simple font?

[@ahmadghasemi7486]

So usefull for me, tanx alot balkan

[@dinloc]

You are the best!!!

[@zielnikzielnik4001]

Super filmy! Bardzo pomocne, przejrzyscie wytłumaczone. Miło, że robisz takie pomoce. Pozdrowienia z Wrocławia :)

[@jodecaesteker]

This is great info, but the real fun begins when you have ceiling plans. Do you have a video about view range in ceiling plans?

[@professordeb]

Best explanation of View Range ever! But why oh why does visibility of walls and floors not show/hide/cut EXACTLY at the dimension set in the dialog? Ugh...Autodesk!

[@PriscillaA.MoralesZ.]

is in the link above as well the course that you mention to create from the beginning the model you are using?

[@aysenurdankiye2418]

thank you for this good video, do you have video for reflected ceiling view range and plan region ?

[@brianhansen5909]

Hi Balkan, First of all, thank you for the content! - It's really great and helpful. I the video, at 3:04 min. you talk about section 1, you have below, how do you manage to get the view rang overview on the screen??

[@prasadshetty9422]

Even Im lookong for the same. I was waiting for the xplanation. But may be he forgot to explain.

[@nasimnaji9405]

I think he manually drew those lines just for the sake of explanation

[@scottpalermo9304]

How did you show the view range lines in the section?

[@mustafizrahman252]

The high windows / High Bathroom windows above the cut plane must be shown as dashed lines per the architectural drafting convention

[@MultiTitan95]

Hi, it's a really cool video, many thanks. One question: How you showed the ranges? I think for (green, red, blue) lines in Sec. 1?

[@andreasalvi2007]

thxx for the vidio big help 👍

[@hamzamynu]

how did you add lines for view ranges? for ex- orange dashed for view range, blue for bottom and so on.

[@sasquatchhimself]

Thanks for the info. Super helpful. I wish they would have just made the "bottom" actually the bottom instead of making that additional 120cm thing like you showed. Would have been much simpler.

[@SoniaSerrano-lo5jl]

is there a way to change the associated level on a floor plan? I having trouble with rooms because of it. For example, my new first floor is higher than the existing first floor. On the new floor plan it is showing the associated level being the existing floor plan and it is not allowing me to put the new rooms in the new first floor because it is locking to the existing first floor and it says the rooms are over lapping and cannot create the room. Now there is a room here and there it lets me create but i cannot edit the range of the room in a section. it still attaches to the existing first floor and does not show in the new first floor. I have tried editing it in an elevation but I am not allowed to adjust the arrows to push the room up or down. I have no idea what's going on and I need help.

[@johannaglinsboeckel6741]

Revit should have a way to see these cut planes in a real time section like BA does. Its soooooo much easier to understand!

[@vamjapratik138]

Hello, i have problem in view range i can not see level 1 drawing from level 2. What should i do??

[@giGTime24]

Hello Sir Balkin, good day, 'have a question, is there a view range in Legends? i can't see my toilet's window plan, because my toilet window sill i little bit high 🙂

[@giGTime24]

I figured it out, thanks 😍

[@Jo-pw7gv]

Thank you so much

[@brandonleclaire718]

B E A U tiful BALKAN!

[@joshmungcal6769]

Hi Balkan, how if I want to see the beam only at 3rd storey what is the setup?

[@vgmogbi6447]

Sir how to address primary range Bottom Grayed out cannot customize view level

[@alqamzi804]

My friend thank you so much for this... but you moved away from the point! of How to use the VR?., When is need? Where. Examples of different levels using VR. not only for walls. But how can I View my ground floor and work on my second floor as a VIEW ONLY, so I have to snap to it but not moving ground floor. ? you got my point. I'm a Vectorworks user and now I'm working with Revit for this year.

[@murahk123]

I don't understand it. When you were talking about even though the wall was above the view range cut plane, it was not being depicted as being cut, I was waiting for you to explain WHY, but you never did. WHY did that happen?

[@salleemoses4130]

Good day sir, please how do I download your revit tutorial to my laptop

[@christmethod8878]

Hi Balkan, how can I MODIFY stair text?

[@abdoulanzizmmadi7708]

Good job

[@KaderKader-pb3eg]

well done Thanks

[@ggkan9169]

Nice Balkan !!! Is anyway to have custom aspect/view ?

[@mustafizrahman252]

A number of staff are easy to draw in traditional drafting practice but when it comes to Revit has been so complicated and time-consuming to draw that is horrible!

[@aqalwazir5285]

thanks sir

[@Kenfh1688]

why my templete down have side view in floor plan view

[@BenBartolome]

another weird relationship of beam with View Range

[@sllm2406]

but what about ceiling view range? thats the confused one

[@nikitesh95]

Hii, I am learning Revit , pls help me Sketch The theme building Arch. I am very confused. please guide

[@surajnarkhede6876]

That's cool......

[@HappySingh-yn3bw]

Super

[@anthonylogue7909]

Excellent tutorial. Thanks

[@abararahmed9402]

[@zagros90]

[@SlowhandDK33]

Anybody who know how to access the oldest files under Patreon - Have to click "LOAD MORE" alot of times, and every time its getting slower - more and more lag, which means it literally take several minuts to load all pages. Is there anyway to access the files beside Patreon.com, because their site rune like shi.

[@satnamkumar5966]

Wow

Even more confused now

[@409raul]

Revit is the worst software ever made

[@cl5619]

It’s pretty bad. It was developed in late 90s with C++, and I suspect that the code base is extraordinary difficult to modify, yet the program is very stable. Revit has barely changed or improved over 20 years, and is slow as hell. Autodesk can’t optimize it for newer hardware, yet it’s always portable. If anyone were to build a BIM today, and they were to do a good job with UI/UX and performance, it would be completely different than Revit.

[@antonioduverge3558]

This program have to be the most stupid invention after the concord! And people buys it!
