The Odd Bunch: Exceptions to the Rule

Visual Styles - An Overview

Realistic Style

NEW! RPC objects now appear textured in realistic mode.

Ray Trace Style

NEW!Photorealisting rendering mode Interactive - you can move

around in the model while it renders

Starts with a low resolution rendering that gradually improves

NEW! Lighting & photographic exposure settings Available for realistic style,

Ambient Shadows

Ambient Light

Playing with the Ambient Light settings can yield differing results.

0 -100% As you increase the value, this will affect the

material colour.

Silhouette Settings

Elevations and 3D views can be given graphic emphasis automatically.

The Graphics Display tools allow the user to specify line styles to be used as overrides on the profiled edges seen in elevation and 3D views.

Linework can be used to further refine the profiles.

Silhouettes & Shadows

Shadow Settings

The Graphic Display Options allow you to control the shadow settings.You can control: Sun Intensity Ambient Light The shadow Intensity

From experience, playing down the depth of the shadows helps to pop the view.

Try Sun Intensity set to 60 and Cast Shadows to around 20 to 30.

Background

You can set the background to: Gradient Sky (like in render

mode) NEW! Image (like in render

mode) NEW! These backgrounds are

available in: Isometric Perspective Elevation NEW! Section NEW!

Hardware!

To maximise the ability to work with some of the graphic functions within Revit, ensure your graphics card can use Hardware Acceleration.

Orient to View

Create a section or a wall section Create a new 3d view Then from the view cube select

Orient to View Pick your section and the 3d

view will be oriented to the section.

Free rotate as required to generate a 3d section.

Orient to View

Use the Orient to view tool to create Floor slices for stacking diagrams 3D details 3D sections Explosion isometrics

Lock the 3D view Use Annotation!

Orient to View: Elevations

One particular challenge is that glass material displays as a solid color in elevation.

If you require glass to be transparent, use a combination of a 3D isometric view and the view cube to orient to an elevation of the model.

3D Sections

Use the section box feature to create section and plan perspectives.

3D Sections: Understanding Poche

The Poche material is the material colour you see when a section box is defined in a 3D view.

It will only display when the level of detail is set to coarse.

Stacking Views

Use a combination of per-category-overrides and filters to generate different versions of the same isometric view

Stack them on top of each other on a sheet

Perhaps add some connecting detail lines on the sheet

Stacking Views

Stacking works well with elevations or sections (foreground / background), too. Foreground Masking region set to custom

transparency Background

Mixture of different visual styles possible

Some issues in Revit 2013 with some visual styles & graphics settings when printing

Masking Regions

Show Hidden Lines

Allows you to display elements which are obscured by other elements

Colour

Typography!

View Templates

View Templates can include all view specific information on look and style NEW!

Color Scheme Great productivity boost! Create a template for each type

of view Assign template to all views of

given type

View Templates

NEW!If a view template is assigned to a view... ...the view will automatically update when changes are made to

the view template. ...view properties controlled by the view template are locked /

disabled. Rule of thumb:

Use a view template for every view type that occurs at least twice in your model.

View Templates & Visual Styles: A lot of the visual styles functionality is quite CPU-heavy Use two view templates for these kinds of views:

One for working One for printing

Information that should already be available in your model.

Adding some colour, via Colour Fill Legends and Room Tags, to communicate the spaces use.

Making the plan punch by adding a coarse fill to the walls, and turning on shadows (but keeping them light & the sun bright).

Don’t forget you can use colour legends in sections views as well as plans.

The important factor is that the room volume extends from the floor finish all the way to the underside of the floor above.

Filters

Control the appearance of elements based on their properties

Much smarter than override by element!

Filters stack! You can apply more than one filter to

the same element Move more important/specific filters

settings to the top of the filter list

Filters

Filters: Example

Filters: Selection Sets

NEW! Selection sets can be saved and used as filters

Filter Hacking

Shared Parameters

Make your model even smarter Add shared parameters to element

categories where applicable Example:

Categorize rooms according to different aspects

Use shared parameters for filtering

Please Recycle!

You do not want to start from scratch every time.

Develop your own standards Reuse them Transfer project standards Create your own template
