Hello there

There's something i cant understand about revit mep:

if i linked RVT architecture model file to MEP project, why can't i see all the views like levels and elevations on the project browser from the RVT architecture model?

Imaen, how can i work on electrical plan if i dont have the levels imported from the RVT architecture model?

Read in your Help about the copy/monitor process.  Also this will help.

Thanks WWHub.

I understand now that i should copy and then monitor the levels from the architect model, OR update the height of my levels to match the architect model levels, and the monitor them.

it worked well.

But now, after i have the right Levels on MEP model, i don't have the VIEWS for the levels copied from the architect model.

They exsist. i can see them on elevation, but not on project browser.

Guess i should create a plan view from each one of the levels copied? how should i do that?

thanks again for all your help.

Why can't you upgrade your file to 2009? - I DID!
