The only thing you can go is masking the unwanted portion (ugh!). You could use some piece of geometry, like a floor, to show you exactly where the member should stop and mask the unwanted area.Dave Baldacchinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00431940617680243953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569516199116206255.post-78361903236795888242014-02-14T16:27:22.564-06:002014-02-14T16:27:22.564-06:00I am experiencing and issue regarding the slanted ...I am experiencing and issue regarding the slanted structural beam that does not respect the depth clipping or view range.

I know what Revit is doing, but do you really accept that behavior?

If you raise the cut plane, you'll see that Revit is moving this symbolic representation around and not showing it statically in one place. So there is a bug with where and how Revit is calculating the Dave Baldacchinohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00431940617680243953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569516199116206255.post-89939418129278892922013-09-10T07:35:34.743-05:002013-09-10T07:35:34.743-05:00To clarify, In my previous message I I meant to wr...To clarify, In my previous message I I meant to write that there is NOT a bug in this case.

If you open the structural column family, you will see that the extrusion in the family has its visibility turned off for plan views for the coarse level. If you turn that on and reload, the slanted column will display correctly cut in plan views. Alfredo Medinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06998597439608444010noreply@blogger.com
