And, I can do this all year long, and twice on Christmas. This is evidenced by the fact that I can cut wall(s) with hidden constraints attached, and paste those wall(s) - with hidden constraints intact - back into the project (or any project for that matter). Still, the point I made, was that cutting and pasting (in today's Revit) doesn't necessarily guarantee the elimination of hidden constraints. I think we both know that 2007 functionality was not what I was referencing, and therefore my comments were obviously out of place, especially since I was talking about a feature ('Reveal Constraints') that was non-existent in 2007. If we also cut/paste elements that are constrained to it then that doesn't remove them. Cut and paste that one element and all constraints related to it are eliminated. The original post asks how to break that, well 'all' constraints. Hidden constraint(s) can be applied to a single element, such as one wall (e.g. 'Dependent on on other elements'? Not true. The constraint relationship (what Reveal Hidden Constraints shows) is dependent on other elements. What sort of constraints exists within a wall itself?Ī locked hidden constraint may be a dimension pulled from wall end to wall end, or pulled from wall end to an element it's hosting, such as a door or window. Half do follow a standard because would require them to do an extra wrote:

To the wrong wall component is very dificult to find them in.Įverybody Wishes everybody would FOLLOW a STANDARD but reality is less than Locking them to the upper wall and not the grid so tring to fix there lock Problem is some walls have changed and someone

Wrote in message have this project Locked wall Core to the grid line that make up theĮxterior of the building. Place views of the parts themselves, or place another view of the assembly and turn off the visibility of one part in one view and the other part in the other (change visibility in the drawing browser, or with levels of detail in the assembly). it may never be perfect but we shouldn't let the weakest

I like to think standards are easier to control in revit than they were in i would agree Revit could use a much more descriptive andĬlear interface to identify and control something as powerful and currently Unfortunately an 'unconstrain all' button would probably create more issues
