Overall Design Status Ranking

Previous pageReturn to chapter overviewNext page

Since each designed element in the Revit model has its own status, the status light on the ribbon bar summarizes the conditions of the model by displaying the worst status currently found.  For display purposes, severity of status is ranked from “best” to “worst”, where, “worst” is defined as the most severe cause for concern for the design professional (i.e., failing unity).

If all elements in the model are passing their unity checks, then the status light will show green.
