Views

Views are also considered parametric elements in Revit, and they have many properties to help you define how they should display information. A view doesn’t change the model in any way—it only acts as a filter through which you view the model. This also applies to schedules and material

take-offs. Although these are more abstract to think of as views, they’re still parametric windows into the model. Throughout the book, you’ll be asked to make views, and we’ll guide you through various methods for making views convey specific information about your design.
