1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:04,880
Open BIMSpeed .str, expand Rebar Visibility, and

2
00:00:04,880 --> 00:00:06,360
choose Rebar Visibility.

3
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:10,440
This command controls whether reinforcement is visible through its

4
00:00:10,440 --> 00:00:12,200
concrete host in the active view.

5
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:14,280
It does not create or delete bars.

6
00:00:14,660 --> 00:00:18,680
We will compare all reinforcement, selected reinforcement, and

7
00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:20,000
the View Visibility property.

8
00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,080
For the first case, clear the selection.

9
00:00:24,380 --> 00:00:27,340
Open the command and uncheck Set Unobscured.

10
00:00:27,580 --> 00:00:29,740
Click OK to apply, then close.

11
00:00:29,740 --> 00:00:33,660
With no selection, the command considers reinforcement in the

12
00:00:33,660 --> 00:00:36,240
document and changes its state in the active view.

13
00:00:36,480 --> 00:00:38,580
A host can now obscure its bars.

14
00:00:38,800 --> 00:00:41,620
This does not switch off the Structural Rebar category.

15
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:46,900
The concrete now obscures reinforcement inside these beams.

16
00:00:47,300 --> 00:00:49,560
Bars outside a host may still be visible.

17
00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:53,080
If you expected every bar to disappear, use View

18
00:00:53,080 --> 00:00:55,300
Category Visibility for that different task.

19
00:00:55,300 --> 00:00:58,360
Unobscured controls visibility through the host.

20
00:00:58,540 --> 00:01:00,540
It does not override every view setting.

21
00:01:02,293 --> 00:01:05,493
For a local change, select the rebar sets themselves

22
00:01:05,493 --> 00:01:06,873
before opening the command.

23
00:01:07,313 --> 00:01:09,613
Selecting a beam is not the same as selecting

24
00:01:09,613 --> 00:01:10,433
its hosted bars.

25
00:01:10,833 --> 00:01:14,013
Here, the selected longitudinal set contains six bars.

26
00:01:14,333 --> 00:01:18,053
Leave Set Unobscured checked, click OK, then close.

27
00:01:18,473 --> 00:01:20,113
Check the checkbox each time.

28
00:01:20,233 --> 00:01:22,393
This installed dialog opens with it checked.

29
00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:27,360
Only the selected longitudinal bars become visible through the

30
00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:27,820
front beam.

31
00:01:28,080 --> 00:01:30,700
The remaining reinforcement keeps its obscured state.

32
00:01:31,200 --> 00:01:34,000
To audit a set, select it and open View

33
00:01:34,000 --> 00:01:35,920
Visibility States in the Properties palette.

34
00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,700
The next screen shows the state for the active

35
00:01:38,700 --> 00:01:39,560
three -dimensional view.

36
00:01:41,327 --> 00:01:44,807
In the native View Visibility States dialog, inspect the

37
00:01:44,807 --> 00:01:45,787
row for the active view.

38
00:01:45,787 --> 00:01:48,467
The Unobscured setting is view specific.

39
00:01:48,827 --> 00:01:50,827
Other views can have their own existing settings.

40
00:01:51,487 --> 00:01:56,007
In Revit 2027, BimSpeed exposes only Set Unobscured

41
00:01:56,007 --> 00:01:56,227
here.

42
00:01:56,647 --> 00:01:58,847
Do not look for the older Solid checkbox in

43
00:01:58,847 --> 00:01:59,647
this installed version.

44
00:02:01,393 --> 00:02:05,713
Clear the selection, reopen Rebar Visibility, leave

45
00:02:05,713 --> 00:02:08,233
Set Unobscured checked, and apply.

46
00:02:08,233 --> 00:02:11,933
All applicable reinforcement can now show through its host

47
00:02:11,933 --> 00:02:12,553
in this view.

48
00:02:12,853 --> 00:02:16,073
If bars are still missing, check the category, view

49
00:02:16,073 --> 00:02:19,273
template, crop or section box, and detail level.

50
00:02:19,773 --> 00:02:22,053
Save the RVT to preserve the view state.

51
00:02:22,373 --> 00:02:25,253
The practice file includes this final visible result.
