Understanding Your Revit Screen

Welcome to Revit. Let’s get familiar with the screen and talk about some useful tools. 
 On the left side of your screen we have the Properties window and your Project Browser. If you close these by accident at any point, you can always open them again by going to View > User Interface and selecting Properties and Project Browser.  
 Your Project Browser has several different tabs. The little house shows you everything in your project, but these tabs break it down into different categories.  
 The cube will show you all the different views you have created. When using Revit, it’s important to keep in mind that you are building a 3D model. You can create many different views of the model with different settings. It’s important to understand if you make a change to your 3D model, that change will be reflected in all views.  
 Artcraft has cabinet families that are drawn to our exact specifications. The cabinet families can be modified to your specifications. The modifications that we allow for in Revit mimic the same modifications that can be done in Akoldaes.  
 To move your screen in Revit, hold down the scroll wheel on your mouse and move around. You can also use the keyboard shortcut “Z A” to recentre your view. You will also use the scroll wheel to zoom in.
