Pipe Break Symb

[djn]

Since Revit doesn't have a pipe break symb, I have created my own that I thought I would share if anyone is interested. It's a line based detail component so you just pick the two end points of the item your breaking. The only thing is that you have to modify the white region so that break line doesn't become bigger than the region (if it's over 12'-10"). I thought about making it a certain distance off of the break line so it won't bomb out, but I like the dynamic feature of being able to stretch it where you want it. If anyone knows how to accomplish this please let me know.

I figured out how to fix this family so that it doesn't bomb out when you draw a line over 12'-10". In the process I fixed a couple other items that I saw. One being that the circles weren't being drawn symmetrical. So here is an updated version.

This works great for the shading mode but I need it for wireframe. any ideas?

THIS WORKS GREAT FOR EVERY VIEW EXCEPT WIREFRAME WHY WOULD AUTODESK PUT IN MASKING REGION IF IT DOESN'T COVER ANYTHING IN THE BEST PRINTING VIEW
