Sooo… Some moose has gone and worked really hard on a Revit project for months… Only to discover the levels are wrong (wrong names and wrong elevations)
The correct levels are now in the model (correct names and correct elevations)
… but we have 100s of views on sheets that are associated to the wrong levels.
These views have varying amounts of detail items.
You can’t change an associated level in a view as far as I am aware…
So have to copy the view, copy the 2D stuff and put the new view on the sheet.
Any suggestions on how to automate this?
I’m kinda thinking I’ll just recommend hiding the wrong levels and keeping the views as they are and pretending it never happened if I can’t work out how to automate this.
Why not just rename the levels and adjust the elevation? if you go level by level doing this it should shift everything without issue, and you’ll keep all your annotations together.
If possible, restore to the previous version. If not possible… proceed with caution. Grouping the views by levels to remain and levels to discard is a good first step. Each level in the ‘to discard’ pile should have a corresponding ‘to remain’. Once you have that you can likely sort by elevation, pair them up, and tell the moose who goofed to copy/paste from the to discard to the to keep. Once that is done removing views on sheet and replacing them is likely pretty quick.
I’ve just had a look at the problem with Dynamo… and there are hundreds of plans on the wrong level. Nothing about this will be quick
At least it’s a bank holiday now so it’s Tuesday’s problem
