Has anyone come across this one before? Working on a site where an existing building is going to replaced by a new one. Revit 8.1 will not allow me to put a new pad over the top of where the old pad has been demolished. So I thought, ok I'll just have a pad for the new phase. The problem here is that the outline of the new pad shows up on the existing plan. I have tried using the invisible lines tool but I can't pick the edges of pad. If I turn off the topography I lose all the rest of my sub-regions, paths etc. Does anyone know how to get around this? Ta Jaime

Here's a couple of things you could try. Did you phase your project.......draw the existing building and pad in the existing phase? If you do this then the new pad will not show up in the existing plan, provided you set the phase filter and phase correctly. When you draw the new building is it sitting in the exact same position? If so don't bother putting a pad in the existing building, just add it in the new construction phase. Pad cannot be drawn over pad even if you demo the existing one, but if your new building is a different shape, lets say on one end, then you could draw the existing pad in two pieces and delete one and then add another pad in the new portion. You are not going to schedule the pad either new or old and you can use fill regions and line work to clean up everything if you're not happy with the results. Not seeing your drawing this is all I can come up with..........
