Apply automatically to new views of same type...

An often overlooked feature for troubleshooting or template creation is the view template checkbox to Apply automatically to new views of same type.

When checked Revit will apply this specific view template to all new project views of the same type [for example elevations, floor plans].

To access this menu right-click on a specific view > Apply View Template > select view template > check Apply automatically to new views of same type.

2 Scenarios where this option is useful

1.  Template Creation

When creating a template you can predefine view templates to automatically be applied to new project views following this approach.

2.  Troubleshooting

If a project is experiencing issues with views, first check to see if there may be a view template being inadvertently applied to new views.  Scroll down the list of view templates to see if this box is checked for any view template.

Hi!
I've recently started my own blog. It's very new and much of it is a work in progress.

I have added your blog to my blogroll, but I wanted to give you the opportunity to inform me if you'd rather I not provide the link.
