Hi All, I'm currently learning Revit by working on the schematic phase of a project in 2D mode only (it was set up this way for area calculations before I got involved) and I'm wanting to create a 2D site plan showing the different roof levels of a very large building with 18 floors. Currently each level is in a different View/ sheet. I thought it would be possible to copy/ paste each of the lower level building outlines into one view/ sheet underneath Level 18. However, it quickly became difficult to sort out the different level building outlines as they don't exist on layers. So my question is: is there a simple way to create this plan in 2D Revit? At this point I'm beginning to think exporting each level (View) to Photoshop would be easiest, but maybe I'm missing a simple Revit technique? Any help you can provide would be much appreciated as my deadline is a few days away!

I think you are missing something simple.  Use the View Range parameter in your site plan view.  Set The cut plane and top plane to above your top roof level and set your bottom/view depth to the site level.
