Displaying Grid Lines & Bubbles in 3D
One simple way to do this grid & bubble (outline of bubble- no text/number) is to create a LEVEL without any framing on it - and EXPORT this LEVEL in Plan View as an ACAD DWG file. Then you can INSERT the CAD DRAWING (as a Vector File)- which will allow you to position it directlt on the level you want to show it.

Thanks! I wondering if I should post the updated version or not.Originally posted by mdradvies View PostLeave a comment:

Great solution! For thos interested: be aware that there is an updated version: http://bimmanager.blogspot.com/2009/...part-deux.htmlOriginally posted by gdoherty0102 View PostLeave a comment:

This method used for Navisworks should work for Revit as well...Leave a comment:

I did a quick test and the appearance of the text in the plan view is affected by the direction that the grid line was drawn, but in a 3D view the text was "right-side-up" for both. Is that what you are seeing? You can mirror the grids to get the text to be flipped, this will not affect the 3D view, which stays right-side-upOriginally posted by lucis29 View PostLeave a comment:

Thank you, jhenry. I used it, its very good. Is there anyway I can flip the text? Is written upside-down.Leave a comment:

I must search a little, but navisworks's guys found a way and made a family to deal with this. It was a while before A.C.I.N.O.F (AUGI CRASH IT's NOT OUR FAULT) :-))
see you soon....

This is my first attempt at attaching a file, hopefully it worked. This is a revit family that has been around a while, not sure who created it, but it shows the grid number/letter in the line itself for easy reference and can be raised to a new offset level so that it's easier to see in a 3D walk-thru. We mainly use this for viewing in Navisworks, works great.Leave a comment:
