Now You Know
The Revit Architecture interface is organized in a logical manner that enforces repetition and
therefore increases predictability. Almost every command can be executed by selecting a view
from the Project Browser, choosing a tool from the ribbon, specifying settings in the Properties
palette, and then placing an element in the drawing window. From there you'll use the View
Control Bar and the ViewCube to view your elements as you'd like. Although we covered only
the most basic tools like Trim, Align, temp dims, and Aligned Dimensions in the preceding
exercises, you'll be able to apply what you've learned in this chapter to the many exercises
exploring other tools in subsequent chapters.
