In addition to agreeing with this I think that the crop region should be able to be adjusted instead of just a rectangle shape to customizable shapes.

Am I missing something? When I do interior elevations I just put the crop boundary in the view back a bit farther than Revit sets them and bump up the floor and wall cut line width if necessary and everything is fine unless I have a pitch ceiling. Then I have to use some filled regions.

I don't trace the outline.

I also created cabinet families that mask the wall cut a the cabinet so you can get cabinet profile that most of us are use to drawing.

Kevin,

Those work-arounds are relatively easy and they do do the job. I would also guess that most of us use them, but it would be faster and easier if we didn't have to use them. With all of the responses that we are getting it seems like a poll should be added to this topic.

It would also be useful if the crop region could be adjusted to snap to set floor and ceiling levels prior to the outlining tool coming into play. Then if a series of elevations have a common floor and ceiling, set and forget. Of course one would have to be able to adjust individual cases.

Just my 2c. (After several hundred internal elevations with same ceiling and floor, and more to go).
