Sure, I'll add dynamic scale bars to my list of topics to cover in 2020. I actually have a video that covers key plan creation here: ua-cam.com/video/Gl-qA2RufXA/v-deo.html
First I filter the views to see which ones have a scope box applied. I am then using the same filter on the key plans on those views as these are what we will be matching the properties of after.
Hi, can you make a video of how to create phasing to title block with dynamo? The goal is to have different title block associated to phasing in the same project and able to set a print set per phasing? Is this possible with dynamo?
The best way to do this is using a project browser sorting parameter and then filtering sheets using it. Phasing cannot be applied to sheets naturally in revit as it comes.
The zone highlighting is something I built into the keyplan myself - it is a family parameter. In this case it's a Yes/No type parameter that turns on or off a filled region that represents the zone.
@@iftekharkhan8879 the parameter is a yes/no parameter that turns the filled region on/off in the key plan. This tutorial reads the scope box and matches its name to the zone for the view on the sheet. It is only able to be connected using dynamo.
It looks like it may not be in earlier builds, quite a few people can't find it. I used version 230.0.1.7333, so it might have been added in Revit/Orchid for 2020 onwards.
@@AussieBIMGuru thanks for the alternatives. I am having a hard time installing orchid, i suspect because i am on a roaming profile on my work server so cannot install anything so these alternatives a great. thanks
@@timyoung2079 yes a roaming profile could be the culprit. It may be worth trying to copy the package folder from whichever user it installs to on that PC to your user folder instead and seeing if that works for you.
I don't believe this is possible to change by default. Usually I add a manual shared parameter and an optional yes/no parameter to that and the autoscale so that if needed you can show a manual scale instead - this could show an all caps version maybe.
I filter them down to a set of sheets as we only want to work with some titleblocks in the model, not all sheets are plan related so a keyplan isnt always relevant.
This was really helpful, both cases are day to day scenarios, Thank you
You're welcome!
Incredibly useful ! Thanks a lot !
You are welcome!
Can you make a video on how you created the Scale Family & also the key plan?

Hi sir..sir first u filter view by scope box to get which view associated to scope box..but after that why u filter key plan ?
Thanku sir

Sir why u chane scooe. Box name to number...u said keyplan is expecting a number??? What it mean sir??
The key plan zones are numbers in the family, so i make the scope boxes have the same names in order to match them.
I've instaled Orchid 0.02 packages and i can't find View node? Did i download correct packages ? Thanks in advance!
Yes element.view is definitely in orchid. Have you installed orchid and the samples?
@@AussieBIMGuru I have not... That was a problem, thanks for help!
@@AussieBIMGuru I have the same problem as Dusan, but I've installed the samples - didn't solve the problem, can't find Element.View node..

@@AussieBIMGuru sir ..how this parameter associated with zone....i saw yout creating key plan in revit tutorial there i did not see ??
@@iftekharkhan8879 the parameter is a yes/no parameter that turns the filled region on/off in the key plan. This tutorial reads the scope box and matches its name to the zone for the view on the sheet. It is only able to be connected using dynamo.

@@AussieBIMGuru thank you for your quick turnaround!
how to create scale family?
Use a generic annotation, then use text for the scale markers. Connect those to a scale number using formulae in the family.
Sir..""sheet.get view port view..." What is the use of this node
It gets viewports on sheets.
@@AussieBIMGuru mean it will create viewport on sheet or it will show which view port assign on which sheet...??
Sir at 10.07 time u filter title block by sheet parameter ?? Why
I filter them down to a set of sheets as we only want to work with some titleblocks in the model, not all sheets are plan related so a keyplan isnt always relevant.
Sir at 9.26 u saying filter the original element by their host element??.here what is original element and what is host element???thanku sir
@@iftekharkhan8879 the titleblocks by their sheets.
Zone highlight parameter ..wher it is??
It is a family parameter I added myself.
