Owner Provided Items Shown Dashed

[TerribleTim]

Hey gang,
Here is a quick one for you. How would you handle this? I have a couple doors that are going in during the "New Construction" pahse but are owner provided and need to be shown dashed. How would you handle it without creating a custom family for that door?

Put in some text in one of the parameters of your choice, then use view filters to look for doors with that value in them, and then show them dashed - explained in images better:

Awesome Alex! Thank you, that worked slick! 8)

Let me second that. This is a great tip that has completely escaped me to date. Thanks!

Note that I would be more l ikely to name the filter as "Owner Provided" instead of "Owner Provided Doors" and select most of the Revit categories in the filter definition: Then it would work for, say Owner's kitchen fixtures like fridges etc as well

Yes, excellent question and excellent answer. It never fails, I always learn more than I was after here. Thank you.
