Tip - Plan Regions Wall Cleanup (Revit Clinic)

Great tip from the Revit Clinic... I run into this problem all the time and used the same basic tip to fix it:

Plan Regions Wall Cleanups and Large Coordinates

The symptom of this condition are wall cleanups which vary from view to view. For example a primary view and a dependent view. If you come across walls not cleaning up as expected in one view let's look at the following scenario:

Let's take a Revit plan view which contained an object well over the 2 mile origin at some point. When this object was present, the cut line for the view range extended to include this object.

At some point several plan regions were added to this view. Each plan region was set to a different cut plane dimension.

The plan regions captured the large coordinates and this could potentially disrupt wall cleanups. You may also notice that some rooms and room tags are not visible in the view exhibiting this behavior.

Should you come across this, you can resolve it using the following process:

Receieved and email from Chris:

..."Jeff,

I am new to revit and now the basics, so I am hoping you can help me. I have a house that am trying to start in revit but I am running into weird problems. I have a house with existing conditions and am remodeling and adding new walls. If you look at the new construction or proposed plans, I am having an issue getting the points were the new walls and old walls join to clean up at the Reference plane I have set up. Any thoughts or am I doing something wrong? Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.."
