Hi,

for a titleblock I am drawing over an existing autocad logo with a couple of very small arcs. When ever I tried to draw anything I get the message that: 'Element is too small on screen'
or sometimes I get: Line is too short, element deleted.
zooming in doesn't help.

the lines are smaller than 0.5 mm which is ridiculously small I know but still I don't see why Revit should make a problem about it.

Are there some settings I can tweak?

No settings. Revit just refuses to do lines below a certian threshold. Your options are:
Keep the logo as an AutoCAD import. Or, make a jpeg or png and use it as a raster import. Or simplify the drawing to avoid very samll lines...
