We have created a step-by-step guide that will walk you through creating a simple table family. This can be used as a basis for future family design. If you would like some more information please email the support department at support@cabs-cad.com

Scope Boxes control the visibility and behavior of datum planes (Grids, Reference Lines, and Levels) in views when a views cutting plane is within or intersects a Scope Box.

Without Scope Boxes, Grids, Levels, and Reference Lines have an infinite scope, meaning they appear globally (all views) in a project. For example, grid lines appear in all orthogonal views of the model. It is not uncommon to want to limit the presence of datum to specific views.

The purpose of a Scope Box is to limit visibility of datum to a specific portion of your project.

Scope box V Annotation Crop

Scope Boxes are a 3D object placed into the project and is used to consistently crop views. It is essentially the scope of a 3D portion of the project. The same scope can be applied to many views.

Annotation Crop is linked to the Crop View parameter for a singular view. Crop View crops the model components in a view, but not the annotations. The Annotation Crop controls the visibility of the annotations on the view.

Phases are distinct, separate time periods (or “milestones”) within the life of the project. They can represent either the time periods themselves or the status of the project at specified points in time. There must always be at least one phase in a project. By default a new Revit project comes with two phases already created. These are named “Existing” and “New Construction”.

The Design Options toolset can be used to manage the design variations (schemes) under consideration. It is assumed that at some point in the design process, one of the
Options will be chosen over the others. The Design Options tool is therefore meant to be temporary. I am going to show how different variations to a house can be displayed using design options before deciding which proposal to take forward.
