Lock Down Your Grids

I recently read about a new way to lock down grids in a Revit model that is effective and easy to implement. Jason Grant details a method using design options to secure the grids in a post on his Revit blog.

Basically you just create a new design option set called "Grids" with a single primary option. Then simply place the grids in this design option and you are done. This way you can't accidentally move a grid without consciously activating the option. Safe and secure while still easy to edit. I'll be testing it out soon on a project near you.

Revit View Range Explained

Dave recently pointed out a great post on therevitkid.com showing a great explaination of how View Range works in Revit with a nice, clear handout.

See the original post here.
