    Greetings to all,

    Is there a way to fit view in Revit by double-clicking the middle button like the way in ACAD? Thanks for any reply.

    No, but you can use the keyboard shortcut "ZE" to
    do the same thing.

    You could try assigning a custom action to your mouse, if the driver can accept macro commands.

    He is talking about something else.

     

    When you select an object in a 3d view for example... you can click on one of the viewcube's corners. By default it will "Fit to view (on view change)" (there is a setting on the viewcube)    on THAT particular object.

     

    The question is ... and my request also... is this behavior shortcut-able to the keyboard or mouse.

     

    When i work in 3d view i want to select an object, click the mouse or keyboard and have the view fit (zoom and pan automatically) to that object... so i can the orbit around it.

    Apparently there is a "Zoom to awesome" addin that uses the API to do that but only in plan view not 3d camera perspective views like you can do with the viewcube.
