Revit 2013 Bldg Design Suite:

I have many gridlines on a 1/16" scale drawing set.  Seeing as I have so many gridlines, I need to jog the Grid tags in order to make them all fit and be legible.  I can propagate the gridlines to all the views in my project, no problem.  Here's what I need to know:  Can I propagate the gridline extensions and grid bubble placement from sheet to sheet, or do I have to do this work on every view???  Thanks in advance for your time.

hi

im not sure if i understand you correctly... but

you can just propagate ONCE to update all the view either in activated view on the sheet or directly to the view.

and you can also  select to which view you want to apply it..

it will propagate and copycat how you jogged your grids in your selected view

Gridlines have 2 settings - 2D and 3D.  3D is the default initially and when you adjust the grid with the 3D tag, then all views with the grid still set to 3D will be changed.  However, once you switch the grid in a view to 2D and adjust it, that grid will no longer be controlled by the 3D movement elsewhere.

The offset of the grid at the end "jog" is view specific as can be the locations of the bubble.

To ronmalit:

I propagated the grids across all the views I wanted to apply them to.  The grids appear in those views, however, the grid tag jogs and end placements are completely different in each view.  All grids are set to 3d, I am aware of the difference in the 2d/3d visibilities.

To WWHub:

Again, I am aware of te 2d/3d visibility states and all grids are set to 3d.  So, you're saying that the gridline tag jogs and end placements are independent to each view?  Is there any way to get these items to propagate at all?  Sorry if I'm being redundant, just wanted to make sure there is absolutely no way.  Thanks again for your time.
