Dimension Parallel Arc Grid Lines

Ever wanted to do this?


Probably have tried and found that Revit won't? Some folks resort to adding little detail lines and dimension to those instead. This tip is brought to you by Kevin Parks, a hard working HOK Revit user in Dallas. He showed it to me the other day and I warned him that I'd have to share it! Thanks Kevin!

So start off like this...follow the "bouncing ball"...




Wrap it all up by adjusting the object offset so the witness lines finish up as desired. Refer to the first image for the final product. This works assuming the grid lines are parallel. Yep...works for walls too!

Sorry...no bouncing ball, just me trying to be amusing...
