Sections Hider for Autodesk® Revit® hides section markers in the active view based on sheet numbers, streamlining your workflow and keeping drawings clean.

General Usage Instructions

Sections Hider seamlessly integrates into your Revit workflow, helping you manage section markers efficiently. Designed for users who generate multiple plans, this tool hides section markers that do not belong to the active sheet, ensuring your drawings remain clean and focused.

Workflow Overview:

  1. Create Views in Revit: Start by generating the necessary section views in your Revit project to detail your design.
  2. Add Views to Sheets: Drag and drop your section views onto the appropriate sheets within your project to organize your plans.
  3. Activate the Main View: Open the main view (e.g., a floor plan or ceiling plan) on the sheet where you want to manage section marker visibility.
  4. Run Sections Hider: Navigate to the "Add-Ins" tab in the Revit ribbon, locate the "Sections Hider Tools" panel, and click the "Sections Hider" button.
  5. Automatic Hiding: The app identifies section markers in the active view and hides those that correspond to views placed on different sheets, leaving only the relevant markers visible.

This streamlined process eliminates the need for manual filtering, saving time and reducing errors in complex projects. Sections Hider enhances your workflow by keeping your drawings clutter-free and focused on the active sheet’s context.
