Revit - Orient to View; How it works

by Garry Stockton

Orient to View

In a 3D view, to the right and slightly below of the 3D cube, is the context menu drop down. If you right click Arrow you get the option to Orient to View.

This will let you select any ‘2D’ view and Revit will align and crop your 3D view to match that 2D view. You can do this for plans, elevations and sections. You can then do all you can do in a 3D view like orbit and rotate. It’s a great way to quickly get a better eye on your model.
