Hey all, So I know the deal with the Sheet.ByNameNumberTitleBlockAndView placement, and why the error pops up (say your view at the current scale is too big for the sheet). All of the previous posts I’ve seen reference trying to place the view manually to check the size. My view is tiny compared to…

Ah! @cnealy I think I know what you need to do now that I remembered seeing these two posts of yours: [image] Axonometric View Creator Naming Issue Revit Sure, this is the relevant information – the rest of the script creates schedules, filters, etc that are all names cor…

@cnealy Do you have a Crop Region on the view?

@awilliams I do not – I tried going that route, but resizing it proved problematic.

[image] cnealy: resizing it proved problematic. Can you elaborate on how it was problematic? The reason I asked about crop region is because I’m thinking its possible the view is actually too large since it looks like this is an axo of a single element with the rest of the model elements hidd…

That’s very possible! The only nodes I’ve seen to resize the crop box require x,y,z inputs and I’m building 40-60 of these views/sheets at the same time. Maybe there’s a package I don’t have downloaded.

I think what @awilliams is saying is that turning on the crop region might help to confirm the size isn’t too big. Often these axons include the hard coded origin, project base point, or survey point which can be quite a way off from the geometry you’re isolating.

Absolutely. When I incorporate the crop view, the size is still too large, as the default crop area (using SpringNodes View.CropView) is much larger than the isolated part. So I think you’re right as far as to say that the uncropped region is propbably bounding the whole model. Any way to auto resiz…

Have you seen this: [image] Element.Create 3d Cropped View (Steam Nodes) - How To Make It Work Consistently? Packages Trying to use ElementCreate 3d Cropped View from the Steam Nodes Package Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn’t. Can someone explain what conditions…

I checked it out, unfortunately, it doesn’t fit the workflow as the views are generated by a list of parameter values and then filters applied (built by the same list). I’ll have to figure out some way to resize the crop box once I create the view.

@cnealy Hmm you probably could filter the output of generated views in some way to pass the views that would need crop boxes through the Steam Nodes View.CropView node

Yeah, I’ve run them through that node but the crop box is huuuge.
