Learn how to create a door plan swing family with a customizable angle parameter. The 2D plan swing of a door family should be created in a separate nested family. Create reference lines to assign angular dimensions. Create a masking region matching the reference lines. Create the arc line using "symbolic lines". Use an "if" statement formula to avoid angles below 1 degree.
You can use this family to add an opening angle to the door 3D panel.
This family is unbreakable! Even if you use problematic angles like 270, the family will keep working.

Wherein something you expect to be simple turns out to be wildly convoluted, and with extra hoops to jump through.... Thank you very much for sharing!

Trying it in RVT23, for anyone else that was frustrated with the Masking not working (saw some comments here) for angles of more than 90 degrees, try to TAB select all the reference planes simultaneously and just pick them with 1 click. Worked like a charm for me.

@arquitectorais4651 11 месяцев назад

THANKS!

@gabrielepiacentini9277 4 года назад

Many thanks for the useful video. Just be careful in the case you want your door to show the frame as if the door swing angle was set to anything bigger than 90° there would be a conflict between the door panel and the frame itself. Food for thoughts.

@omarpaint 2 года назад

Thanks! Great video! Could you explain what to do if you get problems with the 270 angle?

@nicolapeccin3759 4 года назад

Neat. I could never figure out how to get that parametric rotation to work.

@bimpure 4 года назад

Yes, it is extremely tricky and capricious. I had to spend many hours messing around to get it right. The 270 angle is the most problematic.

Hi, When I load it to the door family, the masked region outline is invisible, are there some additional settings in order to fix that? Thanks for the tutorial

Thank you for your video, however I met a problem when I tried to load plan-swing into my door family, it did not shown. I can make sure I follow every step of yours. I would be appreciated If you help me to solve this problem out.

@tingshu37 4 года назад

have you solved this problem? I have the same issue. And I noticed that If you uncheck the "only visible when cut", it will appear. I guess this the reason, but I don't know how to make it function properly.

@neahchandel 3 года назад

The actual angle testing didn't work for any angle. It says remove constraints. What is the problem?

@manuelgarciaarias8484 2 года назад

Same here.

@gabrielepiacentini9277 4 года назад

How do you add hardware (i.e. handle) to that panel and get it to rotate with the panel itself?Is that possible without having to add thousands reference lines and parameters to the model?

@Jester123ish 2 года назад

I'm new but maybe you would add it in as another nested family, and lock that to your reference?

@AbdulSaboorMirza 6 месяцев назад

Nesting! It totally depends on how you want the the family to work, but create the the swing + handle in one family. Load it in the door family and constraint and the add angle. This should work.

@iftekharkhan8879 2 года назад

What about if there r more than one panel???

@trdesigns3d 4 года назад

Hi Dear i tried as u said but the ultimate result is while i place the door on the wall, the wall is not cutting or not Boolean just the wall is passing through the door in project file. can u please help me. from Learner.

@abhishekkhatavakar 3 месяца назад

If we put 0° then also family will not breaking at project level, error is coming only in family editor. So no need to add formula I guess

@t.m18 7 месяцев назад

Thank you

@ilyaasadia2478 2 года назад

So if we need to show the elevations and sections do we close the doors? and then on the floorplan, it's closed? I want it to have the ability to open at any angle but in elevations it should remain closed

@AbdulSaboorMirza Год назад

- Create the annotation family as he did. - Load the annotation family into the door family. - Create the door family as you'd like, but do not attach the door itself to the annotation. - After creating the door itself, hide it in the plan but show it in the elevation and section by visibility settings.

@menheerMaytrap 3 года назад

270' does indeed cause bugs. Why? And why did it not cause bugs in your video?

@kokemolina Месяц назад

Hello, the masking region of the plan swing shows transparent in the revit model (the plan swing is nested in the main door family but i didnt use the 3d panel for the floor plan) Do you know why is it happening?

@bimpure Месяц назад

Are you in wireframe mode?

@kokemolina Месяц назад

@@bimpure Nope but i just solved it with “offset from host” 😅 but idk if that parameter can affect somenthing else

@bimbums1518 4 года назад

What happens when you type 0 degree and then 90 degree? Just use a resolve-based parameter to host the door panel...

@bimpure 4 года назад

Hi BIM BUMS, we create an additional angle parameter with a if statement formula. Basically, the angle is not allowed to go below 1 degree. Check it out at 8:10 in the video. Thanks !

@bimbums1518 4 года назад

@@bimpure , don't get me wrong... its a nice video and you get a nice working door family like this... ...just so many parameters... A resolve based door family have just a few, and work flawless even at 0 degree...

@ocivdelos2335 5 месяцев назад

@macofish1 10 месяцев назад

I can't believe the functionality of changing a door swing is not built-in. I'm really trying to switch fully to Revit but my god there are things that make no sense. Why can't properties be changed to each instance instead of the entire family. Answer: Duplicate everything and name it accordingly. 2'4"x6'8" Dr w/15D Swing then 2'4"x6'8" Dr w/45D Swing...etc., etc. I'll have so many doors with so many variables on a per door basis? This is not logical. Everytime my door swings into something @90 degrees and visually impairs the readability; I should be able to change that angle on the fly. Not create a duplicate, rename it, add parameter/field, etc. Maybe I'm missing something.

@bimpure 10 месяцев назад

You can set the angle to an instance parameter. That means the angle can be individually controlled for each door. Good luck :)

@@kl8750 I agree... I'm an AutoCAD guy.... I can do things in AutoCAD SO much faster than Revit. Mind you, the ability to insert doors, windows, etc... and move them around is nothing short of magical, it's amazing how insanely difficult it is to add or change the number of mullions in a window.... change a door to be open or ajar so that in a walkthrough video you can see into a room.... have a window ajar or open.... and the library locations for components is ridonculously complicated. Go find a toilet. Got to remember it's called a water closet. What... are we in England or Asia? Thought this was a US company. There's a lot of super cool stuff Revit can do, but I agree... it's user interface is really goobered up sometimes.
