View Creation Workflow

While the standard view creation process in Revit works well for the simple production of callouts from overall plan views, most larger projects find they need transitional views – Overall to Partial to Enlarged Area, THEN to details.  These additional steps, if done with the OOTB method, tend to rack up automatic callout bubbles that become unreadable – and therefore worthless! – right away.  Here’s a revised workflow I recommend instead:

This keeps the overall plans uncluttered, allows for collective management of annotations in a ‘parent’ view, and coordinates cropping of sub-set views.
