How to check the angle of the wall quickly (plan view)?

[diesellam]

I have the walls that are not running vertical or horizontal (plan view).

How do I quickly find out how much the wall is angled (plan view)?  In AutoCAD, you can list the item and has all of the properties shown.  But in Revit, in the properties box, the angle is not shown.

Thanks in advance,

David - when you click on the wall (after it is placed and no command is running), do you get the blue dimensions and angles on your Revit workscreen? This would be  quick 'head's-up' information on the wall object.

Some walls do, some walls don't.

Yeah - I noticed that. But, you are right - that is one of the ffeatures of ACAD and ACA that I miss within Revit is the amount of inforamtion in the properties palette.

If you have walls that are close together, the shorter wall that you highlight won't show the angle.

In my opinion, they should include something like "angle in XY plane" in the properties box.
