Revit adjust view to see roof.

After creating a roof you can change its shape or overhang cut openings or align ridges. Working with view range can be frustrating when you start using revit. Click on a roof and change the angle in the slope properties. I have tried changing the view range depth clipping underlay visibility graphics etc.

This four minute friday will show how to adjust roof eave edges. It s the only property you can change for this object. Select the desired linetype from the line style type selector. They will be converted to the default units angles in this case.

Use the depth clipping parameter to display parts of a model below the cut plane. The back clip plane is defined by the view depth parameter which is. I have set up an overall roof plan using revit 2016 and all looks good except for the fact that the roof line and the tops of the exterior walls are all defaulting to halftone. Click it and change it as necessary.

You activate this feature using the depth clipping parameter for the plan view. Select the linework tool in the view panel on the home ribbon. Now when you click the boundary you created above you will see view range in properties palette. This makes the roof line visible in the plan view but the lines appear as solid lines.

You can use any units like and ratios 1 10. Click on each roof edge line to change the linetype. We will be editing roofs using the adjust eaves command inside revit to control how the eave edges are aligned. If you want to change the position of the roof use the properties palette to edit the base level and offset properties to change the position of the reference plane.

Revit displays the modify linework contextual ribbon. After you set the view range correctly you will see the windows now appear.
