I was wondering if there was a way to see Non-bearing walls in a Structural view?

I too would love to know how to make a non-bearing wall show up in a structural view.  The discipline for the view is set to structural and I have (technically) non-bearing masonry walls I need to have show up in plan, but they do not unless I change their structural usage.  Is this possible?  and if not, what good is it to have this as an option if you can only make it visible if you change the discipline?

 Thanks for the help!

I assume that changing the view from Structural to Coordination doesn't get you where you want to be?

Coordination may be a "work-a-round" similar to switching to architectural, but it doesn't answer the question on whether it is impossible in Revit Structure to have non-bearing walls show up in a structural view.

In our office, the structural guys just have us turn any wall they want to show up to be load-bearing and any wall they don't want to show up as non. If I remember right, they tried for a while to do what you are trying and weren't successful....which doesn't mean that it's not possible, but I trust the results enough to take my time to set all of my (architectural) walls to whatever they request.

Didn't intend to reply the same message twice - not sure what happened there.  I understand where you're coming from and appreciate the info.  I will have to (for the time being) do the same as you describe as that is the easiest way around it right now that I can think of.

 

Anyone else hear or know more updated information regarding this topic please respond - your replies are helpful, thanks-

I would sure like to be able to do this, as I want to schedule my walls and have the structural usage field in my wall schedule show "bearing" or "non-bearing"  When I switch it to architectural view, my section cuts disappear.
