If you choose the By Linked View option, the option to select a view from the Revit link becomesĪctive. You can set the link to behave By Host View, By Linked View, or Custom. The first tab of this dialog box allows you to set the behavior of the visibility of the link. This is similar to the Visibility/Graphic Overrides dialog box, but it is specific to the selected The same is true for any overrides you may apply for line weight or color.įigure 4.8 shows that this behavior is indicated in the Visibility/Graphic Overrides dialog boxĬlicking the By Host View button for a link opens the RVT Link Display Settings dialog box. So, if you were to turn off the Doors category in your view, the doors in the Revit link will also turn off. You also have the ability to control the visibility of components within the linked Revit file.īy default, the components in the Revit link will react to the settings for visibility that you apply to your view.
The Underlay column allows you to display the linked file as defined by the Halftone/Underlay settings established for the project. (This is not necessary for views set to mechanical or electrical disciplines, because Revit automatically applies halftone to the architecturalĪnd structural elements in these discipline views.) This tab is useful for turning links on or off in views as needed during design, and the settings can even be applied to view templates. There isĪlso a check box for setting the link to halftone. Each copy can be given a unique name for easy management. If you have multiple copies of a link, they are listed beneath the name of the link, as seen when you click the + next to the link name. This tab lists the linked Revit files and allows you to turn them on or off. When you link in a Revit file, a new tab appears in the Visibility/Graphic Overrides dialog box. You do, however, have control over the visibility of the individual components that make up the linked model as well as the entire link itself. The model is seen as a single linked file. Linking in the architectural model does not mean that you now have hundreds of walls, doors, and windows in your project.
When a Revit file is linked into your project, it is treated as one element-a linked model.
