For Equal distances in( 5:39 )video is as follows: 1. Annotate 2. Aligned 3. In the section saying (Modify /Place Dimension ) --》 Pick: individual References 4. Click of the center of the wall and click on the centre of the Three windows one by one and click on the centre of the final wall. 5. Then click Modify. 6. When clicking on the dimensions (you will notice 《unequal EQ》) 7. Click on the 《unequal EQ》 8. Now its done and will come up with equal distances. Best of luck and thanks for sharing the video and god bless you. If you stuck pls let me know.
EQ: Many people dimension point to point and THEN place their dimension and then they repeat for the next dimension. This is inefficient way to dimension and also causes the dimensions to not be one entity. You must have the dimension line be one entity to use EQ. Just keep clicking on your lines you want to dimension. After you have clicked all your lines, you will have a string of dimensions, THEN place your dimensions. EQ will now be an option.
To activate the equal sybol, type the letters "D I"(Acronym for dimension) then create where you want to be dimensioned and when you are finish the equal symbol will appear.
Elaborating further on dimensioning with equal option: For equal window spacing, you can use the chain command for dimensioning. The equal icon is available when highligting the dimension string.
you need not to move the cursor to the left and also make sure its continues untill you finished clicking the last wall, with that you can see EQ sign and then click on it
Nice tutorial, I get a little frustrated doing the metric conversions, but I just have to remember that you guys do things backwards on the other side of the big blue ball :)
click on 02 Entry Level, then go to properties, scroll down, click on Edit on "view range" and where it says "top" it should say (Level above 03 roof - offset: 0'0'') and where it says "cut plane" change the offset to (4' 0'') Im using the 2013 too and i had the same problem!
Hi I have and issue with floor plans. I am new to Revit. The problem I have trying to draw a new lay on level 2 over level one. i did change the underlay to none. But when I start drawing on level 2 the level one layout get changed. Can any body explain how this can be done Regards George UK
Hello. Can someone help me. I do this tutorial with Revit 2008. I did nothing special as I know, however instead of a elevation views I get section views (I don't see exterior walls but interior partitions, inner doors and so on). How can I get real elevation views, it's very annoing.
I am using Revit 2013 and when i go to place windows on the second level i get this error:"None of the created elements are visible in Reflected Ceiling Plan: 02 Entry Level View. You may want to check the active view, its Parameters, and Visibility settings, as well as any Plan Regions and their settings." Please Help

when you click "aligned", press "ctrl" key and right click on wall to do continuous dimensions, "EQ" should appear when all dimensions are done.
You were missing 3mm because you added 915 as a figure when the dimension was 913, so the spacing should have been just 1250 each.
Really nice tutorial!
Thats much clearer. Thank You
very helpful tutorials, thank you

Do you have any videos of setting up a project file with different views and a template?

thank you for posting this video; thats help me

amazing!
hey m8...!! in your calculation you put 915 instead of 913.....;) but i still don't know where that extra 1 mm comes from....!!
When you annotate, click the "chain" box and enter the dimensions in a chain, this will link them together, then you will get the "EQ"
@txjuris Thanks
Smart!
Your voice sounds like coming from a space ship. Still nice tutorial.
I can only find Imperial measurements and I want metric
if "EQ" doesn't appear, right click one of the dimensions and click "EQ Display"
USE THE ARRAY COMMAND
