I just noticed with Revit 2012 when i hide an "element" in view it does not hide the duct lining associated with that item. The same issue occurs with Duct insulation but we typically do not print with duct insulation on so this isn't usually an issue. Since i am only lining 10-15 feet after mechanical equipment (Vav boxes for example) when i try to hide the elements it just appears as the floor plan is incomplete and missing information since the lining remains visible.
The reason i was hiding elements in the view was to create a part plan. The standard in is to only show the elements within the part plan with tags/notes, etc. Is my only option to not hide the elements in the full view and only have tags within the part plans? or does anyone know a possible work-around?
