Setting the Views Visible Property for a Scope Box

The Views Visible property sets the display of a scope box in various views, including elevation views.

  1. Open a view in which you can see the scope box.
  2. Select the scope box.
  3. On the Properties palette, for the Views Visible property, click Edit.

    The Scope Box Views Visible dialog lists all the view types and view names in the project. It shows in which views the scope box is visible. Revit calculates the visibility of the scope box when you create it and subsequently change its extents. The Automatic Visibility column shows the views in which the scope is automatically visible. The scope box is not automatically visible in exterior elevations, but you can override this behavior.

  4. Locate the appropriate view row (for example, South Elevation), and find its value in the Override column. Click in the text box, and select Visible in the list.
  5. Click OK.

    The scope box is now visible in that view.
