Thorough and illuminating, and with more genteel cadence than in Mr Aubin's previous videos. One of the best tutor in Revit gets better. Please keep up the standard.
Great tutorial, thank you! One question though, those three small windows, can be seen in section view, at 10:50 for example. They are above cut plane, but don't display even though they are below top plane. Any way to get them to display as dashed, dotted or any other way to indicate they are there? The simplest way i found so far is to open family, uncheck "Show only if instance is cut" for lines that are to be seen, and apply Overhead with Linework to the whole window. Any smarter way of going about this?
Thanks a lot. This is very well explained. In my project on 2nd storey, even if I set bottom view range and view depth to 0, set associated level to 2nd storey but I can still see the first storey walls which are not overlapping with 2nd storey wall. Still on above storeys too. Do I need to change other setting?
Hi Paul, I'm using 2016 for a project and I cant hide all my beyond lines. If I look at the level 1 plan for example I can see all the furniture, doors, walls etc on the floor below as a line wieght 1 but I dont want to see them at all. In 2013 I used to set all beyond lines to white to get over that but I can with 2016. Any ideas Thank Nic
You should never have to set anything to white. First check your view range settings and make sure that the bottom of the View Range and the View Depth are where they should be. Typically this is zero relative to the current level. If that does not do it, you might be seeing an underlay of the floor below. You can turn off the underlay on the Properties palette. Hope that helps.
It would depend on the category of the element. If it is one of the three categories that display above (Generic Models, Windows or Casework) they will display up to to the Top setting. You would need to make them dashed in the Object Styles or VG. Otherwise, you have to add an invisible line through the cut plane to make them display and then override the element or VG. For stuff like Roofs, you can use the Linework tool to override them as dashed in a plan.
I didn't cover linked models in this video. Good point. So I recorded a quick followup. They won't let me post a link. Just check my channel. Thanks. Enjoy!
Great tutorial, very well explained. Thank you so much for the time invested for this tutorial. Could you please post revit steel structure. would be very useful.

Thank you for the comments. Much appreciated.
You explained this concept so thoroughly and in depth. Your communication skills are like poetry in motion. Excellent video! Thank you!
Really appreciate that. One of the best instructional pieces I have seen in a while. Still valid on 2021 versions of course.
Much appreciated
Thank you for making this very educational, helpful, and thorough video on "Revit View Range".
You are most welcome
Excellent, clear, thorough explanation of view ranges which I usually stumble through using guess work. Thanks
Thanks for the comment. So glad you like it.
Bing! Lightbulb moment! I finally get the whole veiw range concept. Great job Paul.
u hav quit nice skills in delivering of wat u know.. u r my teacher and teacher..
thank you! I finally understand something about view range now.
Great work! Love your stuff on Lynda, some the best tutorials I have seen hopefully we can see some more Revit stuff on there
Thank you. We do have more courses planned in the future for lynda.com/paulaubin. Please stay tuned.
Great Video, I didn't know it was this easy to use! thanks for breaking it all down
my pleasure. Glad you liked it.

Dario Rubilovic Thanks for the comments. You can use the linework tool to override the graphics on the windows without editing the family.
@MrsSorvad My pleasure. Glad you liked it.
I would like to say thanks to you. And u have amazing lessons about revit. Its cool.
Great Clarity and explanation! thanks
@ProphetChaser Thank you! glad you liked it.
Thank you Paul.
Very Helpful Tutorial
Nazeer Ahmed Glad you like it. Thanks
Great video
I want to ask that if the cut plane is same as top than what will visible
Everything from Bottom to Cut. From Cut to Top is just things that show above the cut.
You give very good in explaining of the view range function. I can have better comtrol in Revit MEP. Thanks
Thanks a lot. This is very well explained.

Check the Properties of the second floor and see if 1st floor is set as an underlay.
Yes. It was set as 1st storey. Thanks.
Hi Paul, I love this video. I have shared it in my blog I hope you don't mind.
Not at all. Thank you very much for sharing.
Great lecture! thanks for tips!
Thanks friend, from Chile : D
Many thanks Paul.
Terrific. So glad to hear it!

what about objects and elementes that are overhanging ? that needs to show in dashed line
It would depend on the category of the element. If it is one of the three categories that display above (Generic Models, Windows or Casework) they will display up to to the Top setting.

Paul Aubin thank you very much for your answer, i will be trying what you suggested

Thank you very much. Very kind of you.

jag dish Glad you like the video. Thank you. I am architectural, so not likely to do a structural video. Sorry about that.
Paul! I have a question about this. I don't know where you're based but I'd love to get your help.
Hello: I am based in Chicago, but I fly almost anywhere. You can send me an email through my website at: www.paulaubin.com/contact
Glad to help! Thanks
That helped me a lot!!!! Thanks
My pleasure
@Misteracad Thanks!
Good stuff!
finally makes sense
glad you liked it. thanks
Thanks heaps
well explained !
Thank you
Thanks
View ranges with linked models is such a pain.
you saved me!
