Hi,

I want to use different size Grid Bubble for different scale view.

If change the size of the grid bubble, It is affecting all the views.

Is there any workaround to get the different grid bubble for different scale views?

Thank you.

BR,

Grid bubbles are not view specific so if you change one in a plan view it will change it everywhere else that the grid show up in.

you could create a different family for the different size, then create a duplicate "large" type fo the title using that family

Grid line types are NOT view specific either and you can't have to grids with the same designation so I doubt this will work.

Grids are have fixed print size globally. That ensures that all your drawings have similar simbology - for instance when you combine different scale drawings (different views) in the same sheet, the grid bubles are identical.

If you have to use different sizes (for whatever reason), you can link a empty revit file just with a copy of your grid system and different grid simbology (different buble types) to specific views (hidding also the grid on your main file). You could also manually draw grids and bubles with annotations. But these "solutions" are obviously not the revit way of doing things - and you have to remember that as they are manually done, you can face inconsistency problems ahead.

Good luck.
