Revit Scope Boxes and Key Plans

Today's video shows how to split up a larger view into smaller views for sheet sets using scope boxes. We also get to see some Dynamo scripts from previous videos put to use, as well as a key plan creation workflow.

I hope you enjoy the session and learn something new! Feel free to comment any feedback/questions below, or follow my channel if you enjoyed this.

Old but Gold! Bro we need the script you talked about at the end.. thanks alot!

You always have a tutorial covering whatever topic I want to investigate a bit further. Fantastic!

I subscribed as soon as I saw the guy with the spoon. Glad i'm not the only weirdo using revit. Everbody Dance!

Hi Gavin! Great video again :) some things I knew, others not. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Again, in my current office they used to do this type of key plans in Autocad with the actual floor plan as an Xref. They would use it, not so much to divide the building into multiple parts, but to highlight which piece of the plan is being detailed further (ex: 1:20 drawings of a bathroom with the general plan as a key plan indicating which bathroom it is). That would also happen in section drawings to highlight the portion of it that its being developed in 1:5, in a constructive detail for instance... But I think for this we should probably use the Callout tool instead...

Thanks for the video! Very instructive! Is there any way of creating scope boxes directly in Dynamo?

Hi Gavin, great videos! I am planning to start uploading my own tutorials at some point and you channel is definitely quite motivational.

Regarding the key plan I have used a slightly different workflow; To avoid using Autocad, I simply draw the lines (detail lines) on the 'A1-Floor Plan' for example, then copy and paste on the family. The rest pretty much the same. I also use yes/no parameters instead of an Integer parameter. In that way, I can highlight more than one zone on the same plan if necessary. Maybe you know a better way to achieve this?

Hi Gavin, fantastic videos!
How can i find the dynamo codes that you used in this video?

[shobhitranjan]

If some one ask that divide floor area into two parts in each floor along building length what it means..is it relates for creating scope box

Set Key Plan Zone Using Dynamo... can u pls direct me to this video... I couldnt find it in your video list...

Hi buddy, I am from Melbourne. One thing of scope box puzzles me is that there is a gap between scope box and automatically created section box. Is there any way to edit or remove this "gap"?
Thanks!

Is it possible to make something similar, but I would like to hatch only certain wall that is placed on sheet? And possibly tag that wall? I would like to automate that process

Sir .. have seen this video I found that "active zone" name parameter drive the other parameters i.e zone 1 to zone 6 ...but in that video u set parameter name as highlight zone?? Here i did nt see any highlight zone parameter???thanku sir

Is there any way to link that keyplan zones with the scope boxes in the model? So that if we choose a different zone, the keyplan changes automatically. Thanks!
