Using Smart Relationship between Building Mass and the Underlying Mass |
The idea behind attaching building elements to massing faces is that you can come back to the massing and make large gestural edits to the underlying form and have the walls, floors, and roofs update. In Revit, the update isn’t automatic, but it’s easy to keep in sync. When elements that are tied to a massing are selected, a Remake button appears on the Options bar. Clicking that button updates the element to match the current shape of the underlying mass form.
