Wall horizontal reveal prevents wall from wrapping

[ernestas722334]

Hi !

I have an issue which became a headache. Project has wall reveals in some parts and prevents masonry from wraping around openings (windows). Without reveal it functions as usual. Do you have any solutions or alternative methods ?

Thank you in advance !

Hello, as nobody answered yet I will just ask these simple questions (see if I understood the problem) :
- Are the reveals really necessary?
- Isn't it possible to simply draw a wall return (or wall corner, I don't know how it's called in english), in short to draw a corner instead of wraping around? This has already been a suitable solution for me...

Hi Yna-Db !

Yes, unfortunatelly we need to keep these reveals.

Do you mean drawing them in a window family or directly on floor plan ? I have thouth about similar solution, but it seems a bit cumbersome with 100+ windows.

Cheers !

That's indeed a lot of work! I have been struggling with this question too and I would be thankful to anyone with a better solution! Maybe something is to be found here : http://www.revitforum.org/architecture-general-revit-questions/11296-wall-reveals-wrapping-corners.html

Thanks !

But I think that we will make it as a detail within a family. Don`t know how it turn up by the end....

Interesting. I also found that page but no solution yet : https://synergiscadblog.com/2014/12/18/back-to-basics-with-revit-walls-part-1-vertically-complex-wall-types/. Anyone has another idea? Maybe should this be submitted (once again?) in the Wish List?
