So, I have a set of phasing lines that i need to show on three different levels. I have drawn them as model lines, actually in their own models(for reasons not worth going into). Portions of these lines are being blocked by floors. I set the levels in teh phasing model to 1' above the levels in the model they are linked into in order to hopefully solve this issue of the floors blocking pieces of the lines, but it has not worked. Any ideas of a better way to accomplish this? revit '10. thanks for your time.

Remember that model lines are just that ... Model. They reside on a work plane that you established. If you want them in front of another model element, the work plane has to be in front of that element.

i ended up just moving them up 2' above the level they reside on and it seems to work. I was just kinda wondering if there was a better way of doing phasing lines. perhaps some sort of 3d element that when cut into shows the line type desired??

I don't know what you mean by phasing lines. We apply phase filters to views to show work in different phases but everything is just model components assigned to different phases.

by phasing lines, i mean lines that separate different phases of construction on a plan. for example phase 1's construction occurs in the northwest sector of the bldg, phase 2 is the north portion, and phase 3 is northeast, etc.. these lines show where construction in each phase begins and ends. they need to be model lines or components so that they update on all views when changed.

Why don't you use reference planes to locate these and annotation lines ion the drawings that are align (locked) to these reference planes? Seems like a more appropriate solution.

i'd say the project is way too large and there are way too many people working on it to coordinate the amount of detail lines necessary. they will inevitably get messed up somehow. model lines work fine once i pushed them up a couple of feet, just wondering if there was a better solution involving a new family or a 3-d plane of sorts.
