Splitting Views using View Breaks

When you are creating details for your Revit project, you often find yourself in a situation where you want to create a full wall detail, without showing the boring bits in the middle.














Any view you have in Revit gives you the opportunity to split the view and not display pieces of the image.

























To enable this view splitting, ensure that the view crop region is active and the Crop Region is visible. (In Properties)








If you select the crop outline of the view you will notice some break symbols on the vertical and horizontal edges. These are the ‘View Breaks’. If you select either of these symbols it will remove a portion of the view.






































The gap is not how you would like the finished view to be represented, so if you select the crop region again, you have some movement arrows to adjust the crop regions into position by selecting and dragging.






































The views can be amalgamated again by dragging them on top of one another, thus undoing the view break.
