Default Re: Revit and Style - drawing style and lineweight

You can edit the object styles to alter the line weights, fill patterns, colours etc... Pretty sure this can then be set as a view filter and applied to other views as they are created. Sounds like you guys take your drawing style quite serious so you will probebly always have to tweek things a bit. Also look at graphic overides. To really show change in depth overlines are still the way I do it (sometimes).

We have several title blocks set up. A1, A3, presentation, working drawings...
you can add parameters such as drawing name and number which is linked to the list in the browser and you can also set up a drawing schedule and place this on your cover sheet to automatically update as you create new sheets.

all symbols such as grid heads, levels, section markers etc... can be customised. Do a save as from the default and edit the family.
