I am new user just begining to dig into Revit architecture 2009.

The company I work for primarily does high end residential design. and often the floor plans have large 'voids' which we would like to infill so that walls appear 'solid'. Is it possible to infill wall voids on plan for presentation purposes?

Thank you

If you set the view detail level to course the walls will have solid fill.  The appearance of the fill can be controlled in the wall properties with the 'Course scale fill color'.

Tim 123..thanks for your response, I understand the coarse display for wall hatch/poche in general...

Attached are jpegs of my problem area...as yuo can see we often end up witj irregualr walls and prefer to 'infill' the voids. Hope that makes sense

Well, those voids are not walls so obviously that can't work.  You will have to add filled regions.

Or create an in-place wall family and extrude it to the height of the wall.  All the voids can be filled with one extrusion, and if you use the join tool to join it to the walls it should look like one mass.  Your sections should also then display correctly.

Why mess with the extrusion - this is a view specific problem?  A simple filled region - same as the wall and covering the wall line using invisible lines as the boundry.

Yes, well, whichever is easier - if it's only for this view a filled region will work fine.  However, its just as easy to create the extrusion to fill the gaps and I would think that this is how it actually is.  If a section is required the voids will be sorted.
