I have a project with two buildings on a site at different orientations, and planned to use Plan Regions to separate them onto different sheets. I believe this is one intended use of the Plan Region tool. However, I also have a combination of normal and high windows, and would like to show both my doors (6'-8" tall) and high windows (sill height over 6'8") on the plans. Since Revit 2015 won't let me nest Plan Regions, is there any workaround for this?

Sorry, I may have solved my own problem already - looked at a previous project and noticed that I used Scope Boxes to create the separate views, not Plan Region...

"...nevermind!"

p.s. would like to know how to delete my posts on this forum, thanks.

Duplicate your floor plan, make one for building A and another one for the building B. Use Crop Region (not Plan Region) to 'remove' unwanted building from the view.

Use Plan Region to override the View Range (show high windows, for example).

EDIT: Yeah, scope box will work too.
