If you had a masonry wall you might want the cut pattern to reflect that.
A grey filled wall on revit floor plan.
The issue is when a revit model.
Place the color fill legend anywhere in the drawing area to describe the color scheme used in the view.
If i create a filter to show existing and new revit considers everything from phase 1 phase 6 to be existing.
In plan view click view menu view properties.
Click the edit button for the view range.
In this case you should model two separate walls.
Click annotate tabcolor fill panel legend.
Architects like to show walls solid filled and you can do this using the coarse filled parameter inside of a revit wall type.
The new walls now show up heavy black outline with grey fill.
One containing the exterior finish the other containing the rest of the wall.
In the new plan we add the new exterior finish that display as white over the existing grey wall.
Revit offers a lot of control over what is displayed.
I then went into v g to override the cut pattern to solid grey.
But i only want to gray out the walls of the existing building.
Material patterns can be a lot of fun as i show in the screenshot to the right.
To prevent the floor or slab from being visible in plan view you need to adjust the bottom clip so that it is more than 4 feet above the floor or slab and set the view depth so that it does not include any part of the floor or slab.

I ve got the plans phased and on the existing phase the existing walls are filled black but on the new they show up as outlined.
Click in the drawing area to place the color fill legend.
One option to accomplish this would be to create existing wall types and those could have a gray solid fill.
Open a floor plan view or section view.
In the choose space type and color scheme dialog select the space type and color scheme and click ok.
