The Visibility/Graphics dialog is the primary tool for managing visibility and graphic display overrides in Revit. Individual element overrides are handled separately in the View-Specific Element Graphics dialog.
If a category’s graphic display has been overridden, the dialog shows a preview.
If not, the cell remains blank, and the category displays according to Object Styles settings.
Creating Purpose-Specific Views
The Visibility/Graphics dialog allows you to control element visibility and graphics per view to suit specific needs, such as:
• Overlay furniture layout on a reflected ceiling plan
• Increase the lineweight of pipes to show a plumbing layout
• Show floor patterns on finish plans
• Hide furniture in a framing plan
• Filter out specific equipment from a view
• Hide a linked model from specific views
