Halftone/Underlay
Revit Architecture lets you control the line weight and pattern used for underlays, and the brightness of
halftone elements. When printing views or sheets, you can specify that halftones print as thin lines to retain
print fidelity.
To define Halftone/Underlay settings
1
Click Manage tab
➤
Project Settings panel
➤
Settings drop-down
➤
Halftone/Underlay.

In the Halftone/Underlay dialog, under Underlay, define the following settings:
■
Weight
: Specifies the line weight for underlays. Select a value from the list. See
on page 495.
■
Pattern
: Specifies the line pattern for underlays. Select a value from the list, or click
to
modify an existing pattern or create a new one. See
on page 496.
■
Apply halftone
: Applies halftone to underlay graphics.
3
Under Halftone, for Brightness, enter a value or use the slider to specify a setting between Light
and Dark.
This setting blends the line color of an element with the background color of the view to the
specified amount.
4
Click OK.
To specify that halftones print as thin lines, use Print Setup options. See
on page 1081.
Structural Settings
For each project, you can control the symbolic representation of structural framing components. You can
specify the symbolic cutback distance of beams and columns (see
on page 865), brace symbols in
plan, moment symbols, and analytical model adjustment. The values you specify are applied to structural
framing components throughout the project. You can also save these settings as part of a template.
NOTE
Most of the settings in the Structural Settings dialog are available if the project was created using the
structural template.
Structural Settings Dialog
The Structural Settings dialog lets you modify settings that are specific to documentation and analysis of
structural models, specifically Symbolic Representation Settings.
Symbolic Representation Settings Tab
The values that are entered on this tab reflect the plotted representation of the drawings. Therefore, the
visible representations that are set with these values will change based on the view scale of the drawing.
