When using 2008 on a previous project, we found that we didn't want to employ the view crop function in sheet views; we wanted our long elevations (and sections) to export in their (unbroken) entirety to the .dwg model space (we needed them for other, at the time CAD only, purposes) and we used viewports in paper space as a workaround...I have just gone to do the same in 2009 - where I have a long section "bleeding" over the sheet view's main extents - expecting to see the whole elevation in the model space in the .dwg. But now, unless I'm doing something different (I don't think I am) Revit is cropping the export of parts of the model view that "overrun" the sheet - so I get view annotations and such come through, but no model - thus defeating the aim.We still do a lot of post-export CAD work, principally because of resourcing on our projects (where the majority are not Revit literate) - and so I still need to get the elevation out "as a whole" - but would rather not export from views - at least not with elevations & sections - I can stomach the agony of doing it with plans just about (to maintain shared coordinate functionality) - but elevations? It's just a headache...So has anyone got any ideas what I could be doing wrong? Or workarounds that can get a very long elevations (and sections) exported (in full) from a sheet view in which they'll end up cropped?

I have just tried the same and I can't replicate your problem - the whole view comes through in AutoCAD, extending over the edge of the sheet. However, I cannot under stand why you would just not export the view rather than the sheet. You could also make your crop region stretch to include everything on the sheet view if you wish, or change the scale so that it can fit on the sheet. Perhaps you could explain what you are actually trying to do in CAD.

Hmmm interesting you can't replicate it - frustrating I've just got home and can't re-test it - but I will do tomorrow.... In the mean time, I'm not trying to do anything in CAD - that's the point. The way our "protocol" "works" is, if I export the view I need to have a title sheet .dwg running in tandem with the xref url looking to the incrementally exported Revit output name....We do this with plans, and it "works" - but I don't like working that way, and would much rather maintain & export the sheet within the .rvt file also. BUT, for the first time today, I have noted that any model-elements in the (area of the) view that oversails the title sheet don't come across to the ACAD model space in the export. Like I said, I'll give it another go tomorrow... it could simply be a crop view/region/export variable I'm just not thinking of.
