could you make it so that the length of the dropline is equal to the length of the space between floor en beam height, so that the dropline automatically adjust to the height of the space. Also when beams are sloped the dropline disappears. How could you solve that?
Great!! TKS! Have a question. I've been able to make it work for a single element, but when the beam intersects a column or another beam, it becomes "visible" again. Any idea why that happens? Tks again.
Thank you so much for your video! I am following your commands, all is good until about 6:30. an error comes up that "Constraints are not satisfied". can you help me with this?
This seems to happen when changing the dimensions makes it try to move the beam(which was highlighted in orange when the error came up) or other object instead of the plane we made underneath. When this happened for me, I clicked on our bottom plane first, then changed the dimension and it worked fine(pulled the plane etc up)
Hi, Thanks for the great video! I am using this system in one of my projects. So far went well. Can you please explain to me how this work around will work if this beam is in an arc shape in plan. I tried but the symbolic line is not following the shape of the beam. Appreciate for your help. Regards.
I have followed the instructions exactly several times with the generic western species glu lam beam. I've also tried this with a parametric beam I created. Either way, I can't get it to show the Hidden Lines. Is there something I'm doing wrong? I'm on Revit 2017.1.
Tried doing it all over again. Getting an error message saying "constraints are not satisfied' when changing the dropline parameter. I am trying this on a steel C channel instead of a wood beam.
Your revit tutorials are best and contains fully professionally information's
Thanks and salute from India New Delhi
Great video! This has saved me so much time and hassle having to draw model lines when I already have the beams modelled. Thankyou!
2023 and still relevant! thanks for the video!
LOL ! i KNOW . . . You are welcome . . . . more coming soon . . . send your requests
@@LearnREVITfast god bless you my man
Fantastic! This is great - I really appreciate your tutorial!

It works, it works! It just took all night to figure out.

Thank you for an excellent video.
great video, nice technique thank you.
thanks for the tip. couldn't get door and windows to show with the cut of headers. good trick to know!

Im not sure what this question is ? The idea is to make the beam visible.
Sorry, by "visible" I mean that the Hidden line becomes a Continuous line when the beam intersects a column or another beam. Tks again.
2020 please someone resolved this?
Nice technique! it can be really useful for ceiling details ;) thanks!
doing this makes all my beams in my project move up by the amount of the dropline dimension
Great video, what about curve beam please explain ? thanks
Hey.. Have u found solution for curve beam??
is there anyway i can do it only for the floor plans, but no the structural plans?
great video! You could make the dropline invisible. That way it wouldn't show in the sections but we could stil see the hidden lines at the plans.

I have the same problem.
Use a precast family
HI! Can you please explain me how this could work with a metric generic model face based family ? Please
Why you don't suggest the simple straightforward use of 'Visibility / Graphics Overrides >>> Projection / Surface '

Awesome !!! - you should teach at University level. Thanks for sharing !!! God Bless!!!

When I am decreasing the value of the dropline parameter the beam is becoming fat instead of the reference line moving up. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks alot sir
its not working on. curve beams. how to make that?
Tried doing it all over again. Getting an error message saying "constraints are not satisfied' when changing the dropline parameter. I am trying this on a steel C channel instead of a wood beam.
Problem solved

in revit 2020 it work, thanks
thank yoouuu!!
Did everything here says and doesn't work in Revit 2019.
Did you find another way to do it? Because I've been struggling aswell after following all the instructions in Revit 2019
Why is this so complicated? Archicad does it automatically, revit is truly the stupidest fucking software I have ever used
Does it work for beams not placed paralel to a floor plan?
Did you find a solution yet? I have the same problem. Doesnt show in sloped beams.
