Setting up a View

To set up a new view, open the project in the appropriate window (Floor Plan, Section/Elevation/IE, 3D Document, Detail, Worksheet, 3D, Interactive Schedule, or List) and adjust any or all of its settings as needed. For example, you can change the scale and layer combination to fit your output needs, in one of the following ways:

in the active window, using the usual editing commands

changing the options of the Quick Options Palette, which always show the settings of the currently active (frontmost) window

See also Quick Options Palette.

in the Organizer, using the “View Settings and Storing Options” at the bottom of the Project Map

The View Settings are stored with each view.
